Presto, rifle umbrella. No shit. http://gadgetsin.com/rifle-styled-umbrella.htm
That's a cool umbrella. The people at the mall....not quite as cool.
"There are no finger prints under water."
and that, my friends, is why I don't open carry.

This guy is nuts.
IIRC it is illegal to carry a sword in Massachusetts let alone a rifle. This is one of those stupid "I dare you" items. Like carrying a rubber gun.. or joking about a bomb in your bag.
Folks are on edge .. heck I'm on edge ..
Considering the mall and school shootings recently and the constant "threat" of terrorism against soft targets I might very well have 911'd on this guy myself.
It is a comment on our society that in people's minds they see gun when anything even remotely like a weapon is seen. The Brady bunch has done it's job well.

So would you drop a dime( or is it 50cents if you can even find a pay phone?) on everyone you see have a beer/cocktail at a bar/restaurant ?IIRC it is illegal to carry a sword in Massachusetts let alone a rifle.

It's the same thing. Guy has done NOTHING wrong, even if it is a sword..( well ok I'm sure there is some law about just carrying a sword around but does that really need a whole SWAT team ?) How do you know he didn't just buy it at the mall ninja store? or maybe is returning it ?
Just cuz I have a beer with dinner doesn't make me a DUI driver.
And hell by the numbers I'm more likely to get killed by the DUI driver then the guy with a sword. ( you EVER heard of someone getting murdered with a sword? well ok I actually know of two ( kid killed his parents back in the late 80's- early 90's) but I've heard of hundreds if not 1000's being killed by DUI drivers.)
13,636 total murders in 2009
10,839 DUI deaths in 2009 ( 33,808 total traffic deaths)
So Ok you ARE more likely to get murdered period then you are to get killed in a DUI... but I bet the number of those 13,636 people killed with a sword in 2009 was less then 20.
If I'm in the mall and I see a guy with a slung rifle I wouldn't call the police, because I'm not scared of guns.
If he shouldered the rifle and started shooting, I'd shoot him. Then call the police.
Must have!! In case of rainy day...
