--- Quote from: HellHound on August 17, 2017, 09:13:45 PM ---would the situation change if the person threatening you was armed with a firearm? it might not even be obvious that a person is armed with a firearm. --- End quote --- If they have a gun and are threatening you with it, it would be justified. If they have a bat or something, probably not. If you can see a riot, don't drive into them. If a riot forms around you, get out of there the easiest way you can. The goal is to find the path of least resistance. No hitting, no nudging, honk as necessary. |

Whether I'm hitting someone over the head with a club or hitting their car on the hood with a club it's still violence. |
