Unless he brandished rather than burnished? Either way, what a dickhole MAGAtard.

I often get hung up on such errors and they cause me to reread for comprehension in case I missed something.

I burnish clay in certain pottery styles but I have never heard of burnishing a gun.

And at the heart of my ongoing argument about how gun nuts wont hesitate to use a gun to get there way with people.

This is not the first story like this and it won't be the last.
It's not a matter of "if" but "when" someone is going to get shot, especially now that Walmart is requiring people to wear a mask.
