Why was he actually arrested though - assuming open carry is allowable do they limit the number of weapons you can have with you?

Yes, I'd imagine they could bring that charge against anyone who carries a gun and looks sideways at someone.

On a serious point, I think there is debate in America about how much legal knowledge the police have, some argue the police training should be longer.

Tbf less than 300 people are killed by all types of rifles and that includes fuckwitted hunters shooting at rustle in bushes that's why you can buy dayglo orange camouflage.
Although when somebody goes on a killing spree with an AR15 the results are more noticeable than normal.

Its handguns that are the problem but America is still at the precontemplation stage about them.

Where do you get the less than 300 people killed by rifles figure?

Around 60% of firearm deaths in the US are suicides, and rifles are often used, especially among young people and in rural areas.

The data analysis reviewed 3,931 gun suicides in Maryland from 2003 to 2018. About 45% of children and teens used long guns to die by suicide, compared to 20% of adults over age 65 who used long guns. The researchers found that 52% of rural firearm suicides were by long gun, compared to 17% in urban counties.

"In the midst of a suicidal impulse, a person will use what they have. Firearms are particularly lethal. If one is easily available, that will be the method of choice,” says Nestadt. “Holidays and hunting season are times when many young people receive hunting rifles as gifts"

Publix is a very nice shop. A bit like Waitrose. He should have done it in Walmart. I think there's a law about that.
