How the hell were the employees to know that the men with guns were law abiding citizens? I can understand their fear.
How do you know a cop is not going to just decide to blow your head off?

How the hell were the employees to know that the men with guns were law abiding citizens? I can understand their fear.
Too bad the employees were not armed
They could have opened fire and claimed they felt threatened. An employee has a right to stand his ground
I'm sure the NRA would have defended them
I'm as pro-Second Amendment as anyone, but these four butt clowns are NOT the guys I want advancing arguments for the Right to Bear Arms:
Rheana Murray, ABC NewsFast food employees who thought they were being robbed by a group of gun-toting men locked themselves in a freezer to hide, police said.
It turned out the men, some of them from the group Open Carry Texas, were just staging a demonstration of their right to bear arms, Fort Worth, Texas, Police Sgt. Raymond Bush told ABCNews.com.
When police showed up, there were four to six men carrying rifles, he said. The employees were in fear for their lives.
No arrests were made and the gun owners went home after their demonstration.
Employees spotted the men outside the restaurant. Once police arrived and reassured the workers they were in no danger, at least one employee posed with the group for a photo.
The demonstration was staged by Open Carry Tarrant County, the local chapter of Open Carry Texas, OCT's CJ Grisham told ABCNews.com.
Grisham denied reports employees hid in the freezer, claiming they were the result of a customer's false 911 call.
"There are a lot of people in that area who completely disagree with gun rights," he said. "They have been doing this to us for months now - call the police with false reports of us waving around guns, scaring people."
Fort Worth police said they stand by their report.
Open Carry Texas, which often stages demonstrations, says its mission is to educate Texans about gun safety and encourage citizens to feel safe around gun owners who bear arms in public.

I don't know who these "patriots" think they are, but where I come from, we call them TERRORISTS.

I can't.
I sat next to a guy carrying a gun in Starbucks right here in San Francisco once, I didn't once think he was going to pull it out and start shooting people.
There is always the possibility that he might.

Once again for the completely stupid. It is COMPLETELY legal to carry rifles in the open in Texas and has been for quite some time. The men in question have been doing it for months in that specific area.
But to the point of criminals. 99.999 percent of crime with firearms is committed with HANDGUNS. Hidden handguns until the perp is IN the store. Criminals do not walk around in PUBLIC with rifles sling over their shoulders. Absolutely no crime happens where 4 men walk about in public with rifles before they rob somewhere.

Let me guess, you come from the throne room of King James.
Incorrect.
Matter of fact, an uncle of mine five generations ago actually fought against King George.
He would eventually go on to become one of our republic's first 10 presidents.

Well, if they were armed then they would be smart enough to know what was going on. Smart people are armed, idiots aren't and they rely on the authorities to protect them.

walking around with a rifle slung over your shoulder is not a threatening act. The employee would be charged with a crime.

How is an employee, or a homeowner for that matter, supposed to know at what point that gun becomes a threat?
Can't be too safe

When they point the gun at you with their finger on the trigger, idiot.

No, you cowards never can be.
