A WALMART shopper has been arrested after entering with multiple guns and defended his actions, saying his Second Amendment rights should be protected.
Moja Kemet Estep of Monroe, North Carolina, 27 miles south of Charlotte, is facing a misdemeanor charge of armed to cause terror of people.
The North Carolina man claims he is someone who can be trusted with guns.
Estep stands by, “Without the Second Amendment, we have no freedom,” he told Cox affiliate WSOC in Charlotte.
“I am not just some random guy with a gun.
“I know how to handle guns properly and safely.”
He plans to challenge his charge because he was not carrying the guns in a way that was frightening and people were smiling at him.
Estep promised that he would do no harm and did not have bad intentions with all the weapons he had on him.
“I am an honest man,” Estep said.
“I have three kids.
“I’ve never had any violent charges.
“All of the people who know and love me can speak for me.”
Defense attorney Brent Ratchford explained that even though the Second Amendment allows you to carry a gun, it is different when you are on private property.
Priority property can legally demand people to not carry guns on its premises.
“Stores are considered to be private property,” Ratchford said.
“They can restrict your gun rights.”
Estep has a different point of view and wants to fight for what he believes in.
He is hopeful that his good intentions will help him through the situation and that he wants to stick up for the Second Amendment.
“You shouldn’t be afraid to stand up for yourself and what you believe,” Estep said.
“I am just trying to protect my Second Amendment, brother.”
Estep is not the only one trying to fight back after a situation at Walmart.
Another Walmart shopper has called to boycott the store due to new self-checkout policies that frustrate them.
The U.S. Sun has reached out to Walmart for comment on the matter.
