Did the guard act reasonably? The turist guy deserved some scare?

Did the guard do wrong by threatening the guy?

Can this possibly escalate into an internation conflict?

Seems pretty tame to me. I would have expected the guy to at least be roughed up a little bit. Even if you somehow don't know not to mess around with redcoats, it should be common sense to lay off the guy marching in military step holding a giant rifle over his shoulder.

What did he expect really? You can have staring contest with them and what not but don't touch them. lol

What if some stranger came to your work, and started touching you?

He was actually being nice, I don't think I would have been as nice.

I guess you could say the tourist was caught... off guard.

Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Some of these guys are treated like animals in the zoo (I want the animals free as well), so I find it reasonable. This guard in particular may have lost his patience. Also, looking in YouTube you can see that this is relatively common, lots of people messing around with armed guys.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
