Going outside with a drawn gun into a situation like that suggests a profound ignorance of the law on the part of Mr. White, and ignorance of the law is not an excuse for breaking it.

May not be the law in Texas.

It seems that there are many posters here who think that laws in New York are the same as those in the Lone Star State.  Although in many cases it would certainly be nice if that were the case, unfortunately it's not.

His son said he did not see anything in his fathers hand. White may have wanted a hidden weapon. It would explain why he put the shotgun back in the closet and took the handgun.
