DEERFIELD BEACH -- Broward County authorities say a man is been charged with murder following a road rage confrontation that resulted in his passenger being fatally shot.

Sheriff officials say 43-year-old Steven Lonzisero and another man approached a driver last week, accused him of driving poorly and shouted racial profanities.

That driver, 49-year-old Hygens Labidou, fired several shots from his legally permitted handgun. He struck Lonzisero and his passenger 28-year-old Edward Borowsky.

The first thing you learn when taking a gun course is “never” point your gun at anyone unless you intend to use it. It is absolutely they last resort. They tell you there is reason to ever fire a warning shot. When you pull your gun it is to protect your life or a loved ones no other reason.

Good for you, holding your composure I think is easier with a CCW and it sounded like the cop handled it well.

Sorry for the poorly written article. I was in a rush this morning and didn’t read it carefully. I was familiar with it and was answering a request from another poster.

Next time I’ll try to find a story that is written properly.

"If he’s locked in his truck, it would take awhile for them to get to him, and if he points the gun at them and tells them to back off, unless they are really stupid, they back off. "

The pommel of a knife will smash the side window of a car the same as a spring loaded center punch. From there, you might drop the guy with one shot, or he might have time to get you before you get him.

I've had to deal with road rage down here. People are insane in south Florida. You might argue that the driver would have to be stupid to advance when he sees a pistol aimed at him, but I observe that he is obviously stupid. The acts of cutting someone off, pounding on his truck, and yelling, "nigger, nigger, nigger," are stupid in any state. It is beyond stupid in a state where there are 300,000 carry permits extant. You do not need one to keep a loaded handgun in the console of the truck, either. Then there's the old adage about bringing a knife to a gunfight.

Hygens Labidou........shot two guys who were driving next too him and only “yelling” racist remarks at him ?

Can’t wait for this to play out.
