    No thanks. Someone walking around with an assault rifle isn’t going to make me feel safe. Quite the opposite actually. It’s going to make me feel like I’m in a warzone, which aren’t generally regarded as safe places.

      I always feel intimidated by cops in full combat gear and rifle at airports. I know I didn’t do anything wrong, but it’s like when a cop is following right behind you in traffic. Even though you aren’t doing anything, he might decide you are. He has all the power and you have none.

      I’m not here to cause any trouble or be that guy with a rifle.

      Then… why is he bringing the rifle?

        He’s not! He’s got a machine gun, that’s completely different!

        I think the real difference is that he is hired to do this versus some gun freak deciding to do it.

    Seems like they could just hire the fresh prince. I heard he’s got a mean slap and that he’s looking for work

      Mean slap? Chris Rock wasn’t even expecting it and barely flinched. Will Smith is as pussy as his wife makes him look.

    And worst of all? It’s for a Philly cheesesteak place. I’m from Chicago, and compared to an Italian beef, Philly cheese steaks suck.

      Why do people from Chicago think their version of everything is the best? No one likes Chicago versions of anything outside of Chicago.

    Imagine going for a sandwich and a guard who wants to shoot a guy but has bad aim instead gets you. But it’s okay! He’s a cop/veteran who knows folks and will be let off with a warning. Because cops never get held accountable if they are shooting bad people.
