    not only is this information entirely from one side of the incident, it is all prior to the situation I was addressing.

    people get pissed off and confrontational all the time. who started it isn't really pertinent to the points I made about the possible outcomes.

    The moment white lady pulls out her gun, the victims would have been 100% legally justified to pull out their guns and kill the white couple dead. White couples actions legitimately are the only thing here that constitutes life threatening.

    If we are going to make sure everybody is packing heat, let's make sure EVERYBODY is packing heat.

    That’s why I started the sentence with “It sounds like.” In the following sentence, I also said we will never know the truth unless a nearby security camera caught the incident on video.

    You posted it as true, I'm saying I'm not sure if true or not.

    It matters to the entire situation, but not to the specific points in my post. Therefore it isn't really any sort of a reply.

    Like what exactly in my original post was the quote supposed to refute?

    I agree they shouldn't be charged (or the charges dropped). Given that there was a verbal threat to beat their asses, and that the women was prevented from backing out and there was hitting of her vehicle, she can make the case that she felt threatened. I would have prefered her to not pull the gun out and try to continue to de escalate.

    Which is a conclusion and I kinda disagree with your basis for that conclusion because you heard one side of the story.

    these angry women find all sorts of reasons to scream at anyone.

    I just quoted from the news report.

    What happened prior the gun was pulled is relevant according to you

    But what happened before that isn't?

    cops do this, that the media sucks on technical details, hitting someone with a car is ADW, if someone threatens you take it seriously.

    none of those even addressed it. reading too much into it.

    When the car begins reversing, Ms Hill is behind it and knocks on the back of the car.


    If gun lady continues retreating, she could have gone down for assault. She is being prevented from leaving

    You can't pull a gun on someone because they stood behind your car and knocked on it. Good god. Her life was never in danger.

    that's clearly what I said. o_O

    why u always trying to assign positions to people?

    not sure what a "grace threat" is but she posed an actual threat of physical violence.

    Here’s the crux of the issue. Guns aren’t toys. They’re tools.

    If you want to play with toy guns, you can nerf, paintball or airsoft. You even get to shoot willing people.
