Oh my god he has a gun!

[45 for me]

Some dude in a bank in Conneticut, saw another customer carrying concealed (poorly apparently) and freaked out. He mouthed the word 'Gun' to a teller, then passed a note saying 'Gun'. The bank went into robbery mode, and the cops showed up and arrested the guy who wrote the note.

The other customer had a CHL and was not detained.

Hopefully, the guy that was arrested was a stark raving mad liberal Democrat. Talk about irony.

If I see another person carrying I have to resist the urge to strike up a conversation. This is made my day.

Must be one of them "low information" type voters.

If this happened more often, we'd live in a better country.

If that's a Take the Money and Run reference, that's awesome. One of my favorite movies.

Idiots like this make idiots who have businesses put those idiotic "WEAPONS NOT PERMITTED" signs at the doors of their establishments. Effectively making gun free killing zones for nutjobs.

Oh and does anyone seriously think he will be convicted of what he was arrested for? (hint: check the location) God bless the cop who made this arrest knowing it will likely not even be filed by the DA.

Ha, funniest thing I've read in a long time!

Most in likely the guy will get a medal and key to the city for being a whistle blower

 

[Nightcrawler]

Not a very smart d-bag by any means . . . maybe he'll mind his own business next time....

No intent, no violation...

[coop44]

henceforth and forevermore this sort of "head in rectum" action should be refered to as a "gursky" or "pulling a gursky"

 

[Barachiah]

There is no culpable mental state in committing whatever made up crime this was. Connecticutt is obviously different in regard to laws. Here in Oregon this would be a very slim Disorderly Conduct II, until the officer spoke to the 'suspect' and realized they were just being a vaj cause they saw a scary gun. I say no crime, in Oregon. But, as a red blooded, pork sausage eating 'Merican, I say, "That is the best news story I've heard in months!!"

FWIW - How it turned out

He went before a judge, and a hearing was set a few days later, where he was then let off.

The charge was disturbing the peace.

The reason for the charge is that the d-bag in question left the bank after passing the note, and just went home. Didn't call the police or the bank to explain the why of what he had done.

When the police showed up they were faced with a big case of WTF? and eventually tracked Gursky down. They gave him this ticket for their trouble.

It didn't say in the story, but I read in a follow up, the person carrying was an off duty Marshal. I do wonder if it would have been as easy for him if he was a civilian with a CHL?
