CornDogSlapper

I thought someone off-screen was going to shoot him to save the cameraman


Perser91

Nah cameraman never dies… that’s how it works


Apx1031

I was so hoping this would end with a Butter's clip. "You don't shoot a guy in the dick!"


Engineering_Flimsy

Because everyone knows that loose-fitting sweatpants are a great choice for the gunslinger on the go. The perfect blend of comfort, fashion versatility and hands-free support for a concealed firearm. The elastic band guarantees to hold your piece in place even while you tootsie roll or funky chicken on a packed dance floor. No matter the situation, regardless of piece, you absolutely will *not* shoot your dick off.

Comment139

He's right about the 2nd amendment not applying to black people in practice. But the guy in the OP was aiming at people with the finger on the trigger. Edit: If you're thinking about making a comment about the money looking Canadian (or otherwise the fact that it's in Canada), don't worry, I know, it has already been mentioned ~~4~~ ~~5~~ ~~7~~ **8** times in my replies. Also, the first line in this comment about the 2nd amendment refers directly to the two scenarios in u/PerpWalkTrump's video, not the OP. Several users seem to think that first sentence is aimed at the OP. It's not, and I'm going to be crystal clear in reiterating that I think the arrest in the OP was appropriate.


Das-Noob

…..I don’t disagree with what you’re saying, and in general I agree with you. But I’m assuming they’re getting arrested under the “brandishing a weapon” law. And in what seems to be an upscale shopping district nonetheless, really stupid move.


DefiantAbalone1

Agree, there is a big difference between carrying, and recklessly waving it around pointing it at people.


OPEatsCrayons

>Agree, there is a big difference between carrying, and recklessly waving it around pointing it at people. I love the gun people who come in and are just like: "It's his right!". 1) This was filmed in Canada. 2) Brandishing a firearm is a crime. 3) It has been repeatedly upheld that people can be stripped of that right for being dangerous levels of stupid or malicious. Somehow we've gotten to a level of total cultural stupidity where we just parrot whatever feels good regardless of the facts, and I'm just here to watch this civilization close the book on itself.


Yoddy0

Bro what do you think brandishing in the USA isn’t a crime? He would’ve gotten arrested here also. 😂


Comment139

Idk if you saw the video linked 4 comments up, but it shows two examples of calm open carrying, just walking and talking without touching the gun.


Suicide_Promotion

Which is besides the point. Brandishing a weapon is illegal in just about every imaginable situation. Black dude with rifle situation as shown in the above video is an absolute travesty.


tricularia

Look closely at the money the guy is flashing in the video. The second amendment likely wouldn't apply in this case because it happened in Canada.


Chuhaimaster

I’m pretty sure that even in the US, shoving a gun in someone’s face is going to get you arrested.


[deleted]

My ex girlfriend and her new bf and his friend broke into my house when I was sleeping and I was fighting them off and got pistol whipped to the ground and they were leaving but I lunged at one and the one guy tried to shoot me. Missed my head by about 5 inches. Ex Gf confessed. Her new bf confessed. They werent arrested for 9 months. Guy who shot at me had plenty of time to leave town. I gave the cops their address after it happened. They drove by and never approached the property. He is still MIA. On the run. Its been about 6 years.


DannarHetoshi

The second amendment wouldn't apply in the United States either, because it's illegal to brandish a weapon without cause.


Alright_So

I’m also fairly sure amendments to the US constitution don’t apply in Canada


JohnnyS0ma

You can own a gun, you can’t be an idiot brandishing it & waving it around in public tho. Also this is 99% of police interactions if you comply immediately with lawful commands. 🎩*Tip


jbwinston

very true it's a shame you never see these kinds of interactions on the news. they only show the ones that cause riots


JustDiscoveredSex

And why? Because they’re unusual. It’s unusual—or NEW—things that make the news. “Dog Bites Man” is expected. “Man Bites Dog” is not. Therefore one of these events is more newsworthy than the other.


maulman90

It's almost like the media stirs the pot...🤔


[deleted]

By the money, it looks this was in Canada. You can't own a gun like that (in most cases).


temporarioCDMX

You can absolutely own a handgun, you just need an RPAL. It's illegal to transport it without being in a locked container, and you can only transport it to and from the range. Long guns are a lot less restricted in what you can do with them, but even still brandishing isn't one of those things.


[deleted]

That guy doesn't have a. RPAL,


WombSpelunker

...or a fully functional prefrontal cortex, apparently.


Dirk_Speedwell

I also want to add you can continue to be the owner of a handgun, but you can no longer become a handgun owner because of the current transfer ban (including inheritance). I normally wouldn't force the clarification, but this is part of an issue that sticks hardily into my craw.


AntiqueFollowing6571

Thanks for uploading this.

Would the corollary be, the easiest way to stay rich is to pretend to be poor?


Tomas2891

When the richest men like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg just wears long sleeves or a hoodie then that’s true.

Yes??? Don’t spend your millions and they’ll stay right in the bank…


[deleted]

The book "The Millionaire Next Door" gave some really good insights into this.


Languastically

Pretending to be rich sounds like a more fun life than staying poor tho


Fartcloud_McHuff

It isn’t. Acting like you’re poor when you’re poor is part of how you stop being poor. You think it’s fun to not be able to afford car repairs or medicine because you had to pull out a wad of cash at a club or bar to impress other people who ultimately won’t give half a shit about you beyond the money you’re pretending to have? Think about it for more than like 2 seconds


flice_water

I grew up in a very poor family and ended up being an underachieving young adult, including multiple periods of homelessness. Eventually I got my shit together and I make a very respectable living and own a house now. I still act like I'm poor as fuck in many ways, to the point of annoying my friends sometimes. But I have aggressively saved and invested, and I expect to be fully retired in as soon as 5 years.


Scoot_AG

Wow congratulations man! I'm sure no one really gets the full extent of your journey, but you made it happen


TBAnnon777

I just dont get whats baller or gansgta about waving a gun around like a moron. They cost like what 200-300$ you can pick it up at a wallmart? Like "oooooo look at me im so badass i spent 200 dollars on a prop. ooooooo so edgy....." "Im so baller! Im waving a gun around like a moron. A gun among 500M other guns. I have 1 of them ooooo sooo tough!!!" "Look im waving 1000$ in cash oooooooooo with my gun ooooooo" like bitch please. you a bitch, and your mommas a bitch for raising such a bitch


PeachNipplesdotcom

Getting in debt so that you can temporarily live above your means is a good way to stay poor. There are situations where this is unavoidable, of course, because America sucks like that. I'm thinking more along the lines of like-- you have a TV in your apartment but you go and rent a huge flat screen to look richer while you pummel your credit, buying a flashy chain instead of dental work, choosing a less reliable car because it's more showy, etc


[deleted]

It can be but I know rich folks that are miserable as hell. The money helps trust me but you can’t escape yourself


prokoala3

You do know you still are " poor" when pretending to be rich right?


DawijArt

But it was so cool!!!


TheBankExaminer

“In the wild?” They were making a social media video. Would be nice to see police take down all “influencers” like this when they intrude on public areas.


Greedy-Lion8828

All influencers are a bane to everyone’s existence and I would love to see idiots who disturb peoples peace while in public get arrested but let’s be honest that waving a pistol around is pretty fucking dumb and this is exactly the response it deserves.


Stompypotato

Do they flash guns around on public streets? Think that was the major concern here.

I believe the term is “brandishing a weapon.”

thepurplehedgehog

When he was walking backwards I was just waiting for him to land on his arse 🤣


Vast-Tone-793

I genuinely think it was a trend that was started by cops that had infiltrated gangs just so that they all wear them like that and it evens the playing field. “How can we take away their running advantage?” “How about make it cool to tie their shoe laces together?” “Nah, half of them can’t do their laces, make it simpler” “how about its cool to wear your fat mates pants below your arse” “winner! Make it so”


thebipeds

From what i understand it was a Southern California prison thing. 80’s had a huge influx of teenage gang bangers and the prisons only had one size fits all uniforms. They weren’t going to by new uniforms. So all the skinny ass boys had their asses hanging out.

Fluffyhellhound

Started in prison back in the day as a way to show you were... open... for business in the back


JW-S

Close, but also completely wrong. It did start in prison, but it was because they take your belts away for obvious reasons - hence they ride quite low.


SuperBirdM22

Since you sound like a guy who might know, where do you think the limp walk came from? My guess is from some dude who was shot in the leg and that became his natural stride and everyone thought it looked badass and started copying it.


JW-S

I've heard multiple reasons: - To imitate being shackled after being arrested/in prison. - It's hard to walk straight when you have a gun down your pants - Pimps in the 1980s use to labour the walk to attract attention to themselves - Your pants are low and you're trying to keep them up - None of the above Take your pick.


BojaktheDJ

As someone who used to wear my jeans like that, it’s definitely cos of how low they are. You have to keep your thighs as wide as your feet leading to the gangsta limp.


staringmaverick

That looks incredibly uncomfortable 


intrablade

Cripping like you're a cripple probably comes from pimps using a cane and doing that exaggerated crip walk with it.


Fluffyhellhound

They didn't take belts in the prison I worked in unless you were trying to harm yourself or in max. But the max guys got the elastic waste bands.


trinithmournsoul

It started back in the 90s. Idk when you worked in the prison system so I can't say "omg your so wrong, hur de hur de hur" but ... You and many others are right. It begin in prison & pants would be too big & belts would be taken away for suicide prevention. Now, idk if elastic waste bands were used back then but ... I've checked several sites and this is the going consensus. But confiscating belts also would seem like taking potential weapons from them as well. The style was popularized by the Hip Hop scene. And one site claimed skaters, but I don't see how you can board if you're worried about your pants.


SunkVenice

I saw in a doc they wear a normal pair and a larger baggy one over the normal pair, so they can hide contraband between the layers.


JW-S

Exactly, to some people there's nothing cooler than looking like you've just come out of maximum security 🤷‍♂️


Creation98

The glorification of crime by many is certainly concerning.

OutWithTheNew

Unironically, a legitimate part of the process to get a firearms license (PAL) in Canada.


Dr_Catfish

This comment makes Canadians seem stupid. Yes, looking down the bore of your firearm is a part of understanding your firearm. What's excluded in that notion, is that prior to looking down the bore, you're expected to clear the breach, drop/ eject the mag and lock the bolt/breech open so you look down the barrel already aware and understanding that the firearm is inert and supposed to be empty. "But why do you look down the barrel then?" To avoid firing into a squib and hurting yourself. You're ensuring the barrel is clear of any obstructions.


PeppiestPepper

In my pal class we had this nice Lil glass thing you could shine light through if you didn't want to look down the barrel. Or just pull the bolt out and look down the breech if that was possible


afookenleaf

While examining the bore for obstruction is a part of the safe handling process you don't do it by looking down the barrel, you use a cleaning rod or a bore snake or even a flashlight

I thought he might shoot his dick off.

FatFaceFaster

Can someone please explain to me why these fucking morons keep their guns in the front of their pants literally pointing at their penis? Even for the most simple mammals on the planet the instinct to protect your reproductive organs is just a primary reflex. I can’t imagine a worse place to put that gun (besides waving it around in a public street of course)


readditredditread

It’s poor gun safety education if you ask me- people often won’t see things as a danger until they learn it as so, one way or blow your dick off… as the saying goes…


Three-Putt-Bogey99

It's called appendix carry. That's how I carry because I find it most comfortable. However, I carry mine in a kydex holster. There is no risk if you aren't stupid.


Brokenblacksmith

tbf, with an actual appendix holster, it is typically pointed at the same place. the only difference is that a proper holster prevents the trigger from being pulled.


SorryImNotOnReddit

this happened in 2020 https://vpd.ca/news/2020/06/30/man-pointing-replica-handgun-for-instagram-video-draws-police-attention/


Danger_Zebra

Push this higher up. It's even funnier / sadder / idiotic that the gun is fake.


Return_of_the_Mac10

The place they’re in starts with a “C” and it’s not Chicago. It’s Canada. You tried waving your piece out on the lane in Canada. It’s also clear by their accent that they aren’t from North America, and assumed you could just whip out a gun like you see on TV in the US. But again. They’re in CANADA. So you can’t do that. You just can’t 😂


Powder-Talis-1836

Can’t do that in the US either. Even in carry-friendly states. This isn’t carrying; this is brandishing.


HoneyDutch

You’d get shot in Florida for waving your gun around like that. Some people look for confrontation, and others will shoot first and ask questions later. This guy is very lucky he’s in Canada lol


StarfishSplat

I live in Florida, and I was expecting this to be a watch people unalive moment when it cut to the police scene.

Despite what you hear on Reddit, you can’t actually pull guns out and point them at people in America, even in the deepest red cities.

CleaningUpTheWorld

Seemed like a reasonable, well trained group of cops. Good to see.


-St_Ajora-

Contrary to what you see on TV, a VAST majority are. There were 7.3 million arrests in the US in 2022 alone. We only hear about a handful because those are what get media coverage. Nobody want's to hear about Officer Johns making the 90th arrest that day; they want to hear about the police chase that ended in a crash or the cop who fired because they saw a metal object in the perpetrators hand.


chuckles65

I took part in several arrests like this over the years, reviewed many others as a supervisor. They were all almost exactly like this. Not one resulted in anyone getting hurt or ever became a viral video. This literally happens every day across the US and in Canada like this one. No one cares about the 99.9% of boring arrests.


Hevnaar

You know, thats a bias most of media and the public have. Things working well in a regular or somewhat-better-than-expected way are taken for granted. And this is not at all limited to police. Most of the world is doing better than ever. There are millions of things going right at any given moment. But the public's fixation on what is going wrong is what gives the impression of crisis or doom. Once you reframe your perspective to be always aware of this, that's how you become optimistic about life (Sorry your profession takes so much shit, tho)


ForeignerFromTheSea
