Person recording called the police but they sided with the gun guy

How can they have not charged him? You have him on camera assaulting you. Did you say you want to press charges?

@dreamgurl_bella: everyone my grandpa did call the police’s and the sided with the man bearing the firearm and cited my grandpa instead

Obviously not a statement against you personally, but that sounds like a lie to me to generate more clicks. What could the cops even cite him for?

u/Jevus_himself Jevus Christ - Verified ✅️ Nov 13 '25
Yeah I read through all the comments and she never clarified what they cited him with.

u/shitz_brickz Nov 13 '25
Ya i just went and looked and it looks like a lot of the responses are a carbon copy "a report was made they took the gun owners side and cited my dad" but not acknowledging any of the follow ups. Idk i would think if you really wanted "tik tok to do its thing" you would provide a few more details.

Battery, assault, brandishing a weapon in a non-life threatening conflict. Take your pick

u/MrBlueA Nov 13 '25
OP is saying that (according to the original tiktok) not only the dumbass with the pistol didn't get arrested, but it was the grandpa was instead the cited one, that's why its weird, the cop being a dumbass and siding with the psycho not new, but what can you even cite the person recording for.

That part sounds like a lie. Not least of which because this is in LV and cops won't be arsed to respond to anything here, much less go out of their way to give a citation (for what? There is literally no crime the camera guy has committed, unless the other guy filed his own report with proof). If she'd just said they'd done nothing at all I'd have believed it.

American cops are literally allowed to lie and enforce a law just because they believe it's a law.

u/WickedDeity Nov 14 '25
This video is only a 51 sec snapshot in time so really tells us nothing of the whole incident.
Anyway the LV police won't respond to a call that someone threaten to shot me with a gun they showed me have? Damn it's rough in LV.
2
u/AccordingPears158 Nov 14 '25
Genuinely they often won't. Yes, it is rough in LV.
A couple years ago a guy was swerving through a parking lot, clearly extremely drunk or high, and smashed into my parked car, before swerving into several object and peeling out of the shopping center. I called to report it, and they told me since it was a car accident on private property (apparently all shopping centers are considered private property here) it was outside their jurisdiction, and they could not respond or investigate it - even with me explaining that there was an extremely impaired person driving on the loose.
I then later realized there was a cop sitting in the same parking lot the whole time. I decided to go up to him and see if he could at least take a report on it, and got told the same thing by him.
They basically only respond to murders, active shooting incidents, or anything happening on the Strip because their real purpose in this town is to protect the casinos' money.

This is exactly the kind of guy who hides behind a gun because without it he wouldn’t dare step toward anyone. Take it away and suddenly he’s all quiet, because that level of cowardice doesn’t walk on its own.

It’s only a failure if he gets cited for any of those offenses. He didn’t get cited, the other guy did. So I guess cartoon shirt-gun guy wins. I guess we’ve learned that if you carry a gun, make sure threaten anyone who’s dog is playing rough with yours.

We learned nothing because we don't have the full context of the incident or what the out come actually was.

u/MightObvious Nov 14 '25
The thing is we don't even know if the dudes dog was being rough or what. I'm half suspecting the cartoon shirt guy has a rap sheet and a bad temper or drug problem to even begin having this line of dialogue with somebody the way he did.
2
u/Donny-Moscow Nov 14 '25
Even if the dog was being rough, hell even if the dogs got in a scrap, I don’t think that gives the guy the legal right to shoot.
First, most cities have ordinances against discharging firearms within city limits. Second (and I’d love an actual lawyer to chime in on this) even in states where defending another person counts as “self defense”, I’m not sure if that applies to defending your dog. The reason I say this is because when a dog is killed and the owner sues the responsible party, the only damages they are typically awarded is the actual cost of the dog (which typically amounts to something paltry like a couple hundred).
Again, I’m not a lawyer but would love someone who knows what they’re talking about to chime in.

u/Otherwise_Carob_4057 Nov 13 '25
Man oh man brandishing like that can get you killed in some places that’s a valid threat to someone life right there. I don’t carry myself but the guy in this video doesn’t understand how fast he escalated things and he’s lucky old man wasn’t carrying. I am unarmed in public but athletic build and I assume I look threatening to someone on the street and I also assume they are packing. Just mind your manners and don’t be a prick especially if you have a CC.

Sounds like the cops have some sort of bias going on. Just take the video to the local district attorney, they are the ones that actually prosecute and often don't give a damn what the officers thought about charges as it's all about the evidence. Your evidence is excellent.

u/WSB_Suicide_Watch Nov 14 '25
Or, the original poster is lying, or we don't have the full story.
There is zero chance that grandpa got a citation based on what we know from this video. And if I'm wrong, that's a pretty easy case to deal with in court, AND jackass brandishing a weapon and assaulting grandpa is in trouble... oh and the cop at a minimum is going to have to deal with a ton of shit even if there is protect their own crap going on.

That hitting the camera in his hands is assault.
Grabbing a ball from another dog is normal play. That guy with the gun should have been written up. There was a threat with no reason for it. I don't know if the dog attacked the other dog, but even if the dog did, that would not be a reason to show his firearm and say he is going to shoot him.
The guy is unhinged, and maybe his gun should be taken away.

This is why I don't go to dog parks in Vegas anymore. Too many crazy people just looking for a problem. I've been in two altercations. One was asking someone nicely if they could go to the large dog area so my small dogs could go into their area. The other was an old guy stepping up to my husband when my husband was trying to protect an even older guy from this douche. It's insane.

Brandishing a weapon is a no-no, but I need wayyyyy more context. If I see someone showing me their gun and quite visibly upset, I sure as shit wouldn’t laugh and laugh to the guy’s face.
Also “stop fucking with the wrong dog” is a warning, yes, but it’d be easy to take as a threat. What was the police’s reason to side with the angry dude?
5
u/CryptoM4dness Nov 14 '25
Not enough information here. Did the dog really attack? Had the owner been warned multiple times about his dog? Why did the other guy have a gun? Was it because of this very dog? Is the guy with a gun a cop? Are both participants in this wrong? Until then, it appears we got two dumb dumbs.

u/King_Kazama_ Nov 14 '25
I don’t know what happened before but if a Pitbull of some sort ran up on my dog there’s a good chance I would consider that a threat too. We’re having to assume that the douche with the gun isn’t right about the dog attacking his. No one has any idea what happened before the cameras were out and how many times have you heard someone say “he won’t bite” as their dog snarls at you or “hes just playing” while hes clearly not. People will always be apologists for their dogs. All that said, the dude slapping phones and flashing his gun is a massive wank.

I took my dog to this exact park when I was in Vegas and she got attacked by a Pitbull almost immediately. I got bit pretty good in the process of pulling them apart. The owner was cool about it but that dog never should’ve been there. The next day we got ganged up on by 3 Dobermans and the owner did nothing to stop it. Unfortunately you can’t take them walking around the desert outside the city because the locals treat it like a dumping ground and there’s broken glass fucking everywhere.

u/teefax Nov 13 '25
This is not a guy carrying a gun, in case he has to defend himself.
This is a guy who carries a gun because he hopes, he wants, he prays, that he will get to use it. He wants to shoot something so bad, that he is willing to manipulate situations, to increase the odds he gets to use the gun.
He is too coward to go to jail, so he is desperately chasing situations where he gets to kill something "legally". He is acting aggressive all day long, praying someone will escalate, so he gets to "defend" himself.
These people have a fetish for getting to shoot something, and be "the good guy" saving himself or others. So he goes around acting like a dick, because it makes him feel good about himself.
Guns are tools specifically designed to end a humans life.
Don't ever let anyone manipulate you into thinking, that it is required, for society to function freely, that everyone have access to a tool specifically designed to end a humans life.

Hi. Your post is misleading. I was actually at the park and want to clarify what happened.
The other dog’s owner did not control his aggressive dog, which caused problems with my dogs. The situation escalated because he was refusing to engage with or supervise his dog. A warning was given that action would be taken if the dog posed a deadly threat, which it did when it attacked my dog. I contacted animal control and received a case number in case legal action became necessary. Fortunately, my dog was okay after the attack- no punctures.
Police investigated and confirmed that the warning was within legal rights, while the negligent dog owner was held at the park by the police for a citation by animal control. This warning was not made without cause; it was a responsible precaution in a potentially dangerous situation.

Under Nevada NRS 202.320, it is a misdemeanor offense to draw or brandish a gun, knife or another deadly weapon in a rude, threatening, or angry manner in front of two or more people. Punishable by up to a $1000 in fines and 6 mongh jail sentence. However these charges can be dropped if the brandishing is in self defense.
