I agree, wardaddy.

“how long would you contemplate pulling a gun for self defense and using it? “ - 1Old Pro

Long enough. You don’t get to kill someone because you are scared or unhappy. There needs to be an active threat to your life or active threat of severe injury to you or another innocent person.

One cannot legally act like a feral youth and just start shooting because you are angry, scared or feel imposed upon. If you aren’t man enough to keep assessing, you shouldn’t carry. If you have bad anger issues, you shouldn’t carry. And if you shoot in revenge for someone knocking you down, you need to be punished.

This buttwipe needs to go to prison so the rest of us don’t lose OUR right to carry responsibly!

That last line of yours is precisely the point

I never knew so many folks use see CCW as such an end all just over an ass whipping

And that wasn’t even an ass whipping

We have no way of knowing but in frontier days when a lot of people carried for protection and hunting etc was it acceptable to pull your pistol or lever action rifle and kill someone for pushing you down

Would the authorities rule a justifiable kill?

I have watched that video over and over

And now we find out this guy was reported brandishing over a moving traffic dispute recently and reported to the cops

I wonder how he feels now..
He got his kill

One note overlooked to a degree here

He shot thst man right in front of his five year old.....

I’ve pulled my gun in my life several times actually both in hot zones and in the USA

I never fired it here.....but they knew I would so they retreated

When I first came here I’d watch folks say if you pull your guns out must use it...that Is poppycock
