If he had an AR-15 then he'd probably get fucked.

In FL or TX, he'd get a parade, in Mass he'd get jail time.

Cool pics!

He didn't even need an AR. Even a .22 would have come in handy at that range and angle.

Would of been a bad idea to engage while the police are engaged, good way to take fire from the police as well as the brothers. They wouldn't have any idea you are just an someone trying to help them out and not additional suspects. All they would see/hear is shots fired at unknown target since you don't have a police radio and recognized as backup.

Should of took video instead of pictures.

Speaking of ARs, this news report seems to contradict the initial reporting that the brothers had one.

I haven't seen a report that they had an AR15, I have seen several sites saying they had a M4 Carbine that was capable of burst, but not full auto. I wonder if Eric Holder slipped them one.

Right about all accounts.

And, could have called 911 and showed the police the other angle by bringing them in the back door.

I wonder how big the class action lawsuit is going to be for violating countless people's 4th Amendment rights?
