I'm definitely holding on to my gun.
The protestors were marching in the neighborhood. Not tiptoeing through Karen and Kyle's tulips.
Are you saying I can go out in my yard and point a gun at anyone who happens to be walking by? I have a hunch that even here in Texas that could land my butt in a jail cell.
Having not seen the confrontation - I cançt say one way or the other -
But
Years ago when 7.62 x 39 ammo became widely and cheaply available (Russian ammo) I bought a couple Russian SKS rifles. To those not in the know an SKS is a Soviet "home guard" rifle very simular to the AK47. Big difference being a fixed 10 round magazine. I had mine fitted with a fixed 30 round. So to the uneducated it looked like an AK47.
I was walking back from my firing range out behind the barn carrying the rifle barrel down - to find a carload of Jehovahs withnesses on my doorstep.
As soon as I realized who they were I told them to vacate immediately. They wanted to keep talking and convince me that I needed to hear what they had to say.
I yelled in my loudest voice (all the while keeping the barrel of the rifle pointed at my feet) GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE...I was totally in charge of myself and was being verbally aggressive to get them to comply... I did not walk towards them or make any threatening gestures.
They rushed to their car - and left.
45 minutes later the state police (not county) showed up. (I was washing my bike in shorts and flip flops)
The JWs said I was "brandishing a machine gun".
The State boy got a chuckle out of it...
To some people - merely holding a gun is "brandishing".
