Hello all,
Just wanted to share what I saw. Would Like to hear what you think as well.
Ok me and the wife went to the store and on the way back as I pull out from the store parking lot onto a major road (Frankford Ave to those familiar with the area) I notice about 25 yards ahead at the bus stop a man in uniform doing something above the trash can next to the bus stop sign. As I am making a lest turn I had to look to the right to check for cars as soon as I made the turn I focused on him and OH MY GOD HE HAS A GUN. My wife screams. Well the dude was loading his revolver while waiting for the bus. He had the box of ammo sitting on top of the trash can. As I drove by he proceeded to holster his revolver and put the ammo box in his pants pocket.
The whole time he was very oblivious to his surroundings just concentrating on what he was doing.
There is a Gun Shop on the corner so I am assuming that he just got the ammo from there. Oh yeah and he wasn't a Police Officer, He was an armed security guard or an Armored Truck driver or personnel.
It was around 5:30pm so it was a lot of traffic up and down the street.
Now in PA to be an armed security you have to take 40 hour course. I think it is Act 235. Now I do not know all about it, but I am sure they teach you better than load your gun in the middle of the street as you are waiting for the bus.
Now what really disturbed me and I know it is very wrong and prejudice but again very few people aren't. This guy at first look appears to be a little mentally challenged. And I know I haven't talked to the guy so I don't know if he is or not.
The next day I was driving home from work on another major road and who do I see same guy huffing and puffing in his uniform and a back pack on with his revolver on the hip and looked like he was talking to himself. I was a traffic light so I got a better look at him and it was even more disturbing he really looks like he has a mental problem, it could be just that it is a physical one that is making him look like a mental case, but most of us have had a mental case in your high school or college the ones that always look at the ground and mumbles. Well thats him.
This really convinced me that not all people should own firearms and especially not all people should be allowed to carry them or use them as a "work tool".
I mean come on how many times have you seen or you have loaded your revolver at the bus stop.
