Why are people so scared?

I've had another individual who knows the OP in this thread send me a PM and vouch for the authenticity of the story. I trust the person who PM'd me so by virtue of that fact I trust that the story is indeed true -- despite how hard some of it is to believe.

Like I said, sometimes truth is much stranger than fiction.

Not going to deal with most parts of the discussion but...

As I understand it, Aggravated Assault is not necessarily a crime against "The People" but against a person. In this situation the County Prosecutor could have chosen to have him charged with a crime against "The people" but it would have been difficult to get past a grand jury with the only other people involved choosing to not to press charges, it would have been difficult to get the case past a Grand Jury. Since these guys could have not claimed that they were afraid of harm, they would have had to prove intent to do harm. It may have also been so unclear as far as who was in a position of self defense, that it wasn't worth persuing.

Just saying...

Reasons to not draw your weapon on an armed adversary:

1: Backstop is a bunch of kids, nuns, elderly celebrating a birthday party.

2: Adversary is too close to draw on without first distracting him by saying "Look over there. . . BOOBIES!"

3. Police on the scene already about to shoot that fool, thus saving you legal fees.

NOT reasons to not draw your weapon on an armed adversary:

1: Afflicted with Big & Burly Disease

2: WHY? My boyz gots my back!

3: He just actin' crazy. I mean a derringer? Really?

I have been away from the party, aka thread, but this is some funny sheet right here!!!!!!!
