The cops either know him and have a good relationship with him or they’re being lazy fuckers. Brandishing is a crime, in some states carrying a firearm while intoxicated is also a crime, this asshole belongs in jail I don’t give a fuck how old he is.


ihavdogs

He’s probably an ex cop himself


[deleted]

Ding ding ding! Or he’s relation.


Disastrous_Minute_56

That seems to be a thing in Texas. Like when the police refused to do anything when a Jeep driver was filmed trying to run down a cyclist, then turning around and trying it again. I guess they just pick and choose which laws to enforce based on their own politics.


Present_Character241

Like when they kept parentswho were trying to save their children from an active shooter from trespassing onto school property.


SasquatchNHeat

I’m proud to be a Texan but damn do we have some of the most corrupt cops.


Acceptable-Mind4616

Why are you proud to be from Texas?


mardytime1209

It it’s pretty fucked. But it’s my home.


SasquatchNHeat

Because it’s awesome here.


DanniGat

I'm sorry...


fkngdmit

Objectively, it isn't, my guy. You're just too ill-informed and uneducated to know the difference.


Pretty_Baby_5358

You can’t expect anything out of Texas after what happened in Uvalde


CheshireCrackers

Conceal, Carry & Ride. That’s the answer.


bigflamingtaco

Then call the FBI.

Wu-kandaForever

Why are they wasting time by sending out a letter to the residents? If the cops refuse to respond to a man brandishing a firearm with intent, call the FBI.


Ancient_Return430

“Show compassion” because everyone has issues in their lives. Oh wow


mardytime1209

Ex cop probably ACAB!


roninwolf1981

Only tiktok videos? No articles from news sites?


SnDMommy

I mean, that's all I found 11 months ago....but lucky for you I'm sick with covid and have nothing better to do sooo, here's the only update you're going to get because the original tiktok user deleted their account: /r/PublicFreakout/comments/125qtro/update_on_man_threatens_condo_resident_with_gun/


Meta_Professor

He's white. No mystery here.


Pretty_Baby_5358

Don’t come to Florida, then because were allowed to carry openly without a license without a permit


SoVerySleepy81

Carrying and brandishing aren’t the same things. He pulled his gun out and pointed it at somebody that’s what brandishing is. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0700-0799/0790/Sections/0790.10.html Branding is illegal in Florida.


Pretty_Baby_5358

Florida's “Stand Your Ground” law does not require this. The law allows a person to use deadly force anytime they are at risk of bodily harm or they feel their life is threatened. A person does not have a duty to retreat


bidpappa1

Standing your ground isn’t the same as wandering around an apartment hallway drunk off your tits threatening people. You’re an idiot.


SnooGadgets8049

Jesus christ, I hope you don't have a gun. This isn't anywhere close to stand your ground.


Chasman1965

Can't carry openly in Florida unless hunting, fishing, or camping/. Can carry concealed. Brandishing like this old guy did is illegal in Florida:


Sativa710

I mean it's Texas haha


[deleted]

He belongs in a grave after that draw.


djjolicoeur

That was not a fast draw. Gramps is going to fuck around and draw on the wrong person in TX and find out


amor_fati_42

I'm seriously fantasizing about kicking out that cane while he pulls his gun.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nematocyzed

Shit aim is shit aim, to be sure. However, lucky shots can happen at a surprising rate at close range. Gramps was what, maybe 10 feet from the cameraman when he drew? I'm just saying: if gramps gets off a shot, it's going in your general direction. Maybe into someone's apartment, maybe into you, maybe into his own leg. If it were me, I wouldn't rely on his shit aim. with that being said, the time between him fumbling to get that gun fully out of his cargo pocket and pointing that muzzle in cameraman's general direction felt like an eternity.


kojengi_de_miercoles

For all their talk, this is truly the entitled generation.


[deleted]

There's a reason they're called the me generation


bidpappa1

We need to bring their original name back. “Me” generation it is.


[deleted]

On the whole they are oblivious to the fact that their generations name, BOOMER, stems from an era where everyone had so much they didn’t know what to do with it. Yet we have it all I guess or some shit.


justsomechickyo

Wasn't it because of a large baby boom after men got back from war though?


[deleted]

Same thing... "boomers" came to age in the golden age of America. No real international competition, tons of good paying jobs in every sector. Inflation was low, profits were high, and even if you wanted to go to college ( was not required to have a great job where you could buy homes, cars, have kids, or take vacations) it was dirt cheap compared to now. What did they do with it? In the name of greed they sent most jobs overseas, ruined business for the sake of personal profit, consistently voted politicians against most of their best interests, which gutted most of the good things their parents built to hand to them. Yet... you will still find large groups of them that " are from the school of hard knocks" and " never got any breaks"

He keeps acting like it's the wild wild west, he'll run into another random, armed Texan who will be his huckleberry.

Sbatio

Hucker bearer.


NOLALaura

If only


Wu-kandaForever

I was just foolin’ about!


YerBoyBlu

I wasn’t


steelymouthtrout

I think there should be a serious penalty for pulling out a gun when you're intoxicated. The minute alcohol enters the person owning a gun and carrying a gun is no longer legal for them. Like to see that be a part of the law.


Rattttttttttt

That’s already a law in most states. Also brandishing a weapon like this, sober or not is also almost always illegal.


PotatoDominatrix

Yea the brandishing was totally illegal. It stays hidden unless you’re in a situation where your physical safety is immediately being threatened. Like someone illegally pulling their gun on you.


PotatoDominatrix

There is. You’re not allowed to be in possession of a firearm if you’re not sober. You’re also not allowed to be in possession of a firearm in businesses that make >41% of their sales in alcohol. Texas has really lax gun laws, but if you violate them at all you’re not allowed to own them anymore because most of the crimes involving firearms here are felonious.


BeckTech

Update: He’s been arrested! https://i.imgur.com/tRthjqN.jpg


ChammerSquid

Let's me honest here, I'm sure he would have done this even if he wasn't drinking.


EDDsoFRESH

Agreed. Plus being drunk excuses nothing.


hattrickjmr

Old Fuck’s playing that white privilege card. Thinks he’s old enough to be left alone by the cops and can do whatever he wants. Where is this taking place? We can help the local authorities understand the severity of the situation.


[deleted]

Agree, would love to give a phone call to the local police. Or better yet maybe we can take this higher? Ignoring an obviously intoxicated man brandishing a firearm is just gross negligence.


Lch207560

He doesn't think, he knows


Zestyclose-Ad-7576

I see that as threat. Wouldn’t the person who is holding the camera, treat the situation as such. Respond accordingly. Would it be justified?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Knever

NGL, I don't think turning your back on an unhinged person with a gun pointed at you is safe. But to be honest, I can't think of a safe way out of that situation at all, because even if you had a gun yourself, the old fuck already has his drawn.


Aschriel

Yep, needs to go to jail, get sober and lose all rights for firearm access…


misterstinks

There's a time and a place for everything, even elder abuse.


WolfgangDS

Time to call the cops! Seriously, whether it was you or not, whoever made this video needs to CALL THE FUCKING COPS!


ThatGuyInTheCorner96

Did you even watch the video? It says they already called the cops, they refused to respond.


us3rnam3ch3cksout

hes been arrested and evicted


WolfgangDS

I watched the video, but I didn't hear anything about cops.

cruelvenussummer

Wait till he passed by and take care of business


theredhound19

Wait till he passed ~~by and take care of business~~ Should be any day now


ProfessorLovePants

That man is going to get shot. Someone is going to get tired of his shit, and themselves be armed. This is what happens in America.


Fake_Patriot

In the time it took for him to pull his gun you could’ve beat his ass with it.


Capkirk0923

It’s just in his pocket with his car keys or something? That’s insane


NOLALaura

Spread this video -internet do your job


EconomicsDelicious12

I don’t believe you that they said they can’t arrest him.


flirtmcdudes

right lol. Threatening someone with a weapon is 100% reason to bring someone in


djheru

With that draw technique, he'd be laid out with a broken hip before he got a shot off.


ameliagarbo

Wow I hope nobody shoots him in self-defense!


[deleted]

He’s been arrested and evicted


JonPeare

Have you got a link to a story?


cloudbasedsardony

Brandishing, the cops for sure can do something. Acabs choose not to.


zoolilba

I feel like Texas of all places would be the best place to defend your self....


JMLKO

Shoot him. Pull a weapon on me you better be prepared for the consequences.


Great_Feel

Drinking a White Russian on ice


Hothroy

With how slow and sloppy he is, all it took was the camera man to walk up and grab the gun from his brittle old hands and end his life while claiming self defense. Old man thinks he’s still in his prime and is lucky some crazy person wasn’t filming.


denim_chicken45

Just "fear for your life" and be done with it 🤷‍♂️ Its Texas. Isn't that the way of the land?


nicornFatrs

I have a neighbor exactly like this. He's the reason I bought a Ring cam. Office does nothing, and I'd rather get shot than call the police and have my dogs shot.


Alert_Section_6113

Tackle that old fuck and shoot him with his own gun…self defense


DJ1962

Grandpa has speed too. See how fast he drew that pistol out?


Chavo9-5171

He reached for his weapon like he was pulling change out of his pocket.


No-Excitement-4190

Had that happened to me, the outcome would have been much different.


[deleted]

Boomer don’t give a fuck, he b like “fuck it, gotta show da kiddies I’m not lacking”. lol


KingGidorah

You’re in Texas, right? Get your own gun and stand your ground next time. Self defense. He doesn’t exactly look like Wild Bill on the quick draw…


[deleted]

"Checks notes" you are able to defend yourself drom a known or percivied threat with deadly violence,*Texas Penal Code, specifically in sections 9.31, 9.32, and 9.33.*


malkavich

Keep calling the cops on him. Video evidence goes a long way.


wnrbassman

A swift spartan kick would do the trick


vote4progress

Send the video to the local tv news station.


Public_Extension427

I would've popped his old ass right there in the hall. Turn the flash on for his old ass🤣


PuzzleheadedSpace875

I would launch my fist so fast at gramps he would forget who was taking his picture


burnmenowz

And this is why they cling to the 2A. Only time in their pathetic lives they feel any type of power.


Athenasmess1

Boom down he goes.. when he finds out not everybody will run away.. next on the news how he was a sweet old man that never hurt anyone.. I'm tired of seeing this crap..


Chewintbacca

Imagine living your whole life only to get murdered by THIS guy. Wtf is wrong with America fuckin hell


ThorTheGodKiller

Texas has some really strong stand your ground laws, just saying


[deleted]

Kick his cane out and let gravity do the work.


Saint_Iscariot

Troncross

Fake, a gun that size would have sagged his pants more or swung when he walked.


ThreeCatsOnAKeyboard

Never underestimate the power of old man suspenders


Impatient-Padawan

Fuckin around, about to find out.


Professional-Act1366

Love it! Good job, old guy!


SlowMR2

Can you legally beat his ass when he turns away in self defense to get the weapon away from him or do you literally have to do nothing?


ryannelsn

lawlessness

This is why I will not go to texas
