I know these guys. The guy who pulled the gun, I sold him his first AK when I worked at the WPB SS. The man in the wheel chair is his Dad. He had a stroke several years ago, & is lucky to be alive. The Dad helps a small FFL at the WPB show. We always chat when I see him at the show. People need to just chill. GARY.

Yep, I don't know what they were arguing about, but I doubt it crossed the lethal force threshold.

Without knowing what happened ?? Weird justice here. Just hope this was sarcasm and I failed to detect it.

Unfortunately without audio you have no idea what the verbal assault was that made him feel threatened

You don't pull a gun on an unarmed person who is chastising you or calling names.

He belongs in jail.

If I walk up to you on the street and say "I'm going to kill you", without showing a weapon or making a move, you're going to pull a gun?!

Pulling out a gun on people over a silly argument especially with a child present (appears to be a child, could be wrong) is the worst image for us. Makes us look unhinged, don’t have much sympathy for the guy if the it turns out the other party did not escalate beyond just verbal argument :roll:
