Soldier Arrested for Bringing Loaded Gun into Bar
Police say the suspect, 24-year-old Michael Spallone, an active duty U.S. Army soldier, was intoxicated and became angry at other patrons at the bar. Spallone had a loaded semi-automatic handgun with him and he made threats that he was going to kill some of the patrons. Some of his friends overheard the threats and notified security.
I’m a supporter of the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms. I support the right of adults to drink. What I do not support is people doing both things at the same time. If you’re loaded your gun shouldn’t be and vice versa. And if he did this there is no justification because he’s in the army. Quite the opposite. Since he’s in the army he should know better than to use guns like that.
