Kai Cenat showcases ‘firearm’ on live stream
During Cenat's recent live stream on Twitch, he had a substantial audience of over 10,000 viewers, and the clip featuring the moment has garnered over 8,000 views. While streaming from his mobile phone, he wanted to reveal his streaming area, inadvertently showcasing a firearm that was resting on the table. The firearm was only visible for a few seconds and was properly secured in a holster, indicating that it was not being exhibited in a threatening manner. Considering these factors, it is expected that Cenat will not face any issues from Twitch as a consequence of this incident.
But fans were curious about the potential consequences of showcasing a firearm on Twitch, particularly whether it could lead to a ban. According to Twitch rules, "Any activity that may endanger your life or lead to your physical harm is prohibited." So, it is not against Twitch rules as long as the firearm is legally owned and licensed, and its display is not accompanied by threatening or reckless behavior.
‘It's a toy gun’
After the video clip went viral on Reddit, fans started sharing their thoughts on Cenat. One user said, "Question , if he legally obtained a gun in his state and it was literally in a holster…why are some of you demanding a ban ?" Another user said, "As long as it's legally obtained and registered (which we don't have any reason to believe otherwise) and he's responsible with it and not waving it around on camera then who cares?"
One fan wrote, "People have their guns laying around in their home like this? I'm clearly European and I'm neither shaming or judging, I just thought it had to be locked up at all times you weren't intending to use it in a weapon safe just like in Sweden. We have tons of rifles here for hunting wildlife." Another fan said, "Its a toy gun."
