I guess that you would have a heart attack in an open carry state like New Mexico where lots of folks carried it out in the open while shopping.

The person who flashed his gun to get a parking space needed to be arrested and charged and quite possibly do a little jail time for threatening someone with a firearm plus answer to a civil law suit. This person should have never been issued a CCW in the first place. When I was an instructor there were several people that I gave the class to that I would not certify as completing the training until they took more classes on safe gun handling and a class on the carry laws.

The person that flashed his firearm could have been shoot if he would have done that to an off duty police officer or someone who had been in law enforcement and is now retired. Because in real life, when an officer sees or hears someone yell "gun" someone is going to get shoot. The man who did that is way behond stupid.
