"Would you have done the same thing if you were armed?"
*Yup*
I believe you would have confronted them to tell them to pipe down, but doubt you would have circled the table twice. That's the part that trubbles me. Intimidation with a weapon.
I agree. If people want to protect their life or property with a weapon, that's fine. If people want to enforce rules, regulations, and the law, become a police officer. I carry, concealed, and would have never walked around, acting tough with a weapon because loud noise bothered me.
