As I said above it is not a good idea and not something I would do and since I don't know the person I can't opine whether it is an ego trip or wanting to make a point or what. However, you cast aspersion toward all the right becuase of this one event. Good judgment or not, this person did nothing illegal, there is no evidence anyone was threatend, carrying around rifles and handguns is only seen as scary in urban areas while the rest of flyover country actually feels safer knowing that someone is there that can defend them. So you need to obtain a broader perspective on how many people live outside large cities before defining civilized behavior according to your narrow definition.

What is not typical of civilized culture is the President of the United States inciting union thugs to beat up his opponents which is exactly what he did and is much more deserving of your condemnation than a peaceful citizen showing bad judgment.

I am curious about the quote, "Ones of these days, a group will decide to enforce their right of self defense and forcably remove the rifle. It will never end" What are you suggesting? If this person did not threaten anyone why would it be self defense to take away their private property just because you don't think they should have that right?
