Florida man brought AR-15 to Disney World for family’s safety amid protests
Man Caught with Weapons Arsenal at Disney World A Disney World visitor who was caught with an AR-15 rifle and a 9 mm handgun says he only brought them along to keep his family safe. The weapons were discovered in a tennis bag when the unidentified 43-year-old was checking into the Polynesian Village Resort over Labor Day weekend, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. The man also had 60 rounds of rifle ammo and 20 rounds of handgun ammo, the sheriff’s office reports.
When deputies asked why he came to “the happiest place on Earth” loaded to the teeth, the man reportedly told them he wanted to protect his family. Because the man had a concealed weapon permit, he wasn’t arrested; however, he and his disappointed family were escorted off Disney property. Should authorities keep an eye on this guy? Do you feel less safe today than you did 10 years ago?
