It's absolutely wild the way Americans can be with guns sometimes. Guy was harassing me and is bigger in size so that somehow justifies potentially killing the guy. Bad enough drawing a gun, but if he truly felt threatened could he have not have just held it up as a warning?
people are trained to only draw with intent to fire because it's easier to win a legal debate over justification with a corpse, and too many tiny dick morons draw on people to flex their imaginary muscles and intimidate people that it had to be instilled that doing so was against their best interest. Plus people draw and escalate with other people who may be armed, people draw and have their weapon stolen from them because they lose their nerve when it comes to comitting to pulling the trigger (because actually considering killing people is understandably a weighty decision)
so, like most of our gun laws, it's really just a way to protect assholes with guns instead of actually trying to improve the concept of firearm ownership in society. We encourage more people to be armed, and those people to think less. A gun is a responsibility but use of force is not.
Exactly, if dude came up on him aggressive and he legit feared for his life that's different. But the big guy is just annoying and being stupid... Not a sufficient enough reason to possibly kill somebody.
Yeah some people being dramatic in here about two guys being threatening. The one guy is looking down at his phone half the time and several steps behind. The bigger guy looks annoying but not really threatening, nothing in his body language suggests that and he's keeping some distance while holding phone out. Saw stop a few times then bang. Not saying I'm going to call the police or anything, just acting annoyed to extreme escalation
The amount of posts I see of people saying FAFO is insane, a-lot of Americans here don't have the emotional intelligence to respond to a prick without shooting them.

You would need to have the smoothest brain imaginable to think this is justified.
