Hollonbeck admitted to his actions and said he was "afraid for his daughter's safety and didn't know who she was with or that she had left without permission," according to the report.

Oh, well if he didn't know then it's perfectly understandable to point a gun at an underpaid taxi driver.

Going to guess he considers himself a responsible gun owner.

What a dumbass... and as bad as this is... it gets WORSE:

“That vehicle was completely unmarked. In my mind, this was not good, right?" Dr. Sean Hollonbeck told WEAR News.

I can't say I've seen an unmarked Uber or Lyft car, generally they're very good about displaying one or both signs, so doubting this statement from the jump.

“I served 31 years, I was an Army doctor, I trained as a Navy flight surgeon, I served with the 7th Special Forces Group, I served with the 160th," Hollonbeck said. "I served six tours.”

Then you should know better.

"And everybody knows what’s going on in this country with fentanyl and child trafficking and rape. Terrible stuff.”

If they were engaging in child trafficking, why would they be bringing her BACK to your house? 🤔

“In this country you’re innocent until proven guilty,"

You mean, like the Uber driver?

Its a strange kidnaper that drops their victim off at home.

No wonder the daughter leaves the house without his permission or knowledge. Hes a fucking lunatic.

wtf happened to simply talking to people?

Poor daughter. I hope she reminds daddy later on why she does never visit.

Hollonbeck admitted to his actions and said he was "afraid for his daughter's safety and didn't know who she was with or that she had left without permission," according to the report.

And yet again this shows that people cannot use guns responsibly, guns must be prohibited. The US could be such a nice place...

Oh, I get it now. THAT'S why we need to be able to own assault rifles.

Also remember kids, if someone voluntarily signs up to get paid to go kill people, they're not to be revered, they are mercenaries.

was the driver...non-white perhaps?

You just know he’s been waiting for a chance to play Seal Team Six for awhile now.

The young female was still in the vehicle when she saw her father run up to the driver with an AR-15 in hand and force him to the ground, according to an arrest report.

Needs to have his fuckin kids taken from him, if they're not yet adults. Psychopath.

The ONLY ONLY ONLY WAY to PREVENT this is if the CAB DRIVER SHOT the man BEFORE He could do this!

Some gun owners look for any reason to use their gun. Smh.

Send these idiots off to fight a war. They will have all the chances to use their gun. most will probably be better off used as sandbags

Lose Your Right To Own Firearms And Surrender A Few Years Of Your Incredibly Short Life In One Easy Step!

Wasn’t there a post just yesterday about a study saying people are more apprehensive of their neighbors when their neighbors have this type of gun?

Yeah, this is why.

And yeah yeah yeah, any random crazy person could have any random gun. But when you see your neighbor loading up with these guns you kinda know they are extra crazy.

I guarantee you the ar-15 owner is a Fox News watcher. It would explain his paranoia and fear of strangers.

Are these people living in real dangerous areas or are they just convinced any unexpected car entering their driveway is out to murder them?

Second similar article in a short period, the other was a pizza delivery that went to the wrong address and got shot at.

Yet another responsible gun owner acting completely rationally. Good thing you can just go out and buy a gun and just have to wait 3 days to get it without any sort of checks and balances other than a simple background check.

Every definition of the word conservative leads back to fear, afraid and terrified.

This is what happens when you aren't the type of adult or parent a kid can trust or have faith in. Hopefully the kid doesn't go down the wrong path because of this behavior.

You can take the guns out of the picture and it's still shitty. You will never reach a friend or person by acting like this.

Hope he learns and understands and is able to move on.

Presumably she's old enough to have a phone and order an Uber. I'm guessing the father's taking the phone away (nothing she did).

fragile fuckin garbage ;;

Y'know, everything else aside it is profoundly inappropriate for rideshare contractors to be driving unaccompanied minors. They are not background checked at all the same way taxi drivers need to be. I'm kind of shocked uber allows it and that drivers feel comfortable with it. Obviously first and foremost this is an incredibly irresponsible (and dangerous to society) parent but holy shit, a rideshare corporation go ahead is not adequate for a kid to get into a strangers car.

muriccaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

He looks a little bit like Paul Rudd

After other recent rideshare initiatives, I propose they introduce a "no white women" option for men of color. Dead ass.

Edit: It looks like the oh so sensitive white folks need to revisit the original "Birth of a Nation" and all of American history as well.
