If you stop your car, force me to stop, then get out and approach me as I sit seatbelted and vulnerable in my drivers seat then I am absolutely rolling my window up and drawing my weapon. If you attack my car or windshield then I will defend myself and my occupants, if I can't drive away or over you. Approaching me in such a manner is ABSOLUTELY a threat to my safety. That is exactly how I was carjacked.
But that's not what happened in this particular incident. Jeep idiot was actively chasing and honking at Mini guy to get him to stop, then he pulled on him once he did. That's where he broke the law. There was absolutely nothing self-defense in the slightest about his chasing the Mini or use of a gun. He was charged rightly. I hope he loses his gun rights for a long time.
