Anyone who mentions CCW in this thread should lose theirs.
He was DRINKING and in and out of BARS. He also had the opportunity to WALK AWAY.
He was CHALLENGED. NOT threatened.
All of these are perfect examples of when NOT to brandish a weapon.
Anyone who pulled and fired on these idiots would be charged with murder.
That's rediculous. Any phyisical challenge to myself is dealt with as a threat. I don't take kindly to "fronting", whether it be rednecks or thugs.
Not everyone feels so comfortable with being surrounded by big stinky white bastards, who are intent on fighting you. I know I wouldn't feel comfortable turning my back on retards like this.
Stupid no good thugs should learn their place and back off, or learn the hard way. :thumbsdown:
ANY "threat" you can walk away from is NOT a situation in which you should brandish and/or fire your weapon.
The OP KNEW he could walk away from the start. He never doubted it. His only question was SHOULD he walk away.
The only person learning anything the "hard way" here will be you, when you are convicted of murder for shooting someone who is not an immediate threat to your life. And the fact that you'd be carrying and using your weapon while drinking will add mitigating circumstances to your conviction.
In short, you're a damn fool who should march down to the nearest sheriff's office and turn in your CCW permit... if you even have one.
