WWYD: Gun Store Buttinsky Edition

ABC News apparently has a regular feature titled, ‘What Would You Do?’ It’s a kind of Candid Camera arrangement with actors creating uncomfortable public situations. The hook is seeing how members of the general public react to them. In this case, a father’s buying a gun for his son on his seventh birthday at a San Antonio gun store when a woman walks up and objects to the impropriety of it all. Dad, junior and nosey Nancy are all actors (as is the salesman). As reader Chris J. (who alerted us to this little gem) wrote, “surprisingly it was not the usual ABC fare. Overall it was pretty good, even if, as I suspect, they cherry picked the most negative reaction they found to the AK.” Agree?
