brandishing a firearm isn't a crime now ???????
My daddy told me never to pull a gun on a man unless im 100% going to shoot and the trigger better be on its way back when I draw. He could have shot you dead and said he was in fear of his life aka self defense.
In the future keep you weapon in you pocket unless your gonna use it. Otherwise your going to get caught with it in your hand and that's embarassing.
I see alot of this stuff since I am a truck driver and my truck is governed at 62 miles per hour. What you did is what I would have done but you need to see if Ga. has a concealed carry law. I have a concealed weapons permit but if I carry it in my truck where I need it most it is a felony.
The best thing to do is avoidance. If he gets out of his car and you can pull around him and leave him standing there - do that and call 911 cause he'll probably chase you. If you can't escape, then defend.
You are right on about the chains. I was asking a tow truck driver if he carried a pistol, and he said he brought down a "big ol boy" one night with his chains and a J hook.That guy who hassled you is a fool.
Coming back to someone's car to start trouble is very lame. He could have been blasted by someone who didnt show more restraint and self control than you did.
On the other side of the picture, get yourself about a 3 foot piece of heavy chain and a small hatchet. Epoxy leather belt loops in each so they can slide over your wrist and dont drop.
Chain in one hand, hatchet in the other....get out and tell him to come on and get some. One swipe with that chain will change his mind very quickly...I've seen some HUGE tough(?) guys drop when that chain got them.
Remember this, someone who is really trained in hand to hand serious combat and prison fighting self defense isnt likely to have the hot headed temperament of some of these "tough guys". A trained professional will usually let things like that go ,keep calm, and just move on.
Its those who THINK they're baaaaad who come back after you and usually bite off more than they can chew.
Forget that bum, he is nothing. You have my congratulations for not just blasting the worthless loser anyway and getting into trouble with the laws.
Have a happy new year.
