There is no such thing as being "over armed". That is how you throw a baseball, under or over arm.
Here is how a Hawaii OPEN CARRY law would have saved a life and prevented this death.
If instead of a concealed weapon the agent had a sidearm CLEARLY visable, would the loud mouth have opened his big mouth in the first place?
If the FBI agent had an AR-15 slung over his shoulder, how likely is it someone would come up and harass the person with the AR-15.
I suggest you all go to any firing range and have a look see how polite most people are. You don't want to be rude to someone with a loaded gun, especially if they can hit a bullseye over and over. You don't walk up and run your rude mouth. People tend to be VERY polite and respectful and yes even FRIENDLY and tend to keep their bad offensive language for somewhere else.
The only exception are range officers who enforce the range safety rules. They tend to feel the rush of power and get carried away sometimes.
