    I guess so, other than his manifesto saying he wants to kill Trump and showing up at the same place and time. I don’t think I’d wanna be ak-bush-guy in court

    edit: are AK’s even legal to carry around? I don’t know if FL has open carry

      There’s an old law in FL, I know it’s in TX; probably in FL, attempt an assassination once… you’re a fool…attempt twice, you can’t attempt again.

      If I am not mistaken FL has one of those statutes that permits Open Carry only while lawfully engaged in fishing/hunting/camping.

      In some states it is legal to open carry a rifle on a sling in public. Pointing it at/across a public street from a semi-concealed position, as the suspect was, isn’t legal in almost any situation, in any state.

      I think there’s a YouTube channel called the armed fisherman whose deal is to carry an AK as he goes “fishing” because that is allowed. I’ve only seen a couple of vids, so my details are probably wrong.
