The guy who gets through the windshield in the accident between the three trucks...

Did that guy just take out his gun and shoot the one who rammed him?

when i drive and i have my 1911, i sometimes brandish that in front of other drivers when i probably shouldnt....(one time i remember some huge commercial truck was tailgating pretty closely....i slammed on the breaks pulled out my gun and waved it around at him....the guy still wanted me to pull over to i guess fight me....i just pointed my gun at him and drove away another time involved a smaller truck tailgating, i didnt do anything till i realized he was doing it to an elderly person, so i slowed down to kinda trap driver behind the elderly person he was tailgating...he kept inching closer to me trying to scare me away...i just pulled out my gun pointed it at his face and he stopped, thats 1 instance where my gun probably saved my life)....probably shouldnt do that but its hard not to with the idiots in the usa drive most of the time (you would think all are firefighters, who all have some house fire to put out somewhere....the idiot americans simply race (waste gas) just to get to the next stoplight faster....its crazy...also you can look forward to the first snowfall of the season thats always fun...i guess the idiots in this country forget in a matter of months how to drive in slippery conditions....



also, is doing what i do illegal?? i mean im not like firing it at anyone just brandishing it to other drivers in violation of the law, usually in a way that puts myself and my passengers (sometimes my children) in danger....i look at it no differently than defending one self...except i have a gun and the other person has a motor vehicle that sometimes can weigh tons so i still see my self as a disadvantage...a car is still more deadly than a gun by far...

knowing the way cops are in this country they would probably freak out over someone defending themselves with a gun...but turn a blind eye to the guy menacing people with their motor vehicles that weight tons...even thought the guy with the motor vehicle driving it recklessly is far more dangerous...

Was going to mention that it's not just the USA... we have the same idiots in Canada that race to the next red light, but the gun thing is a little unacceptable..

What happens when one of those idiots has a gun aswell..? (because they probably don't think they're doing much wrong, or at least they act that way with our lives in their hands). Do I have to worry about you guys having a firefight on the highway as I transport one or more of my family members on a highway? You people and your guns...

Anyways.. I don't want to derail the topic... let's see some more 1C employees trying to get to work

If you have to go on a forum about computer games to check firearms laws in your country, then you shouldn't have a gun.

You're either mega-stupid, trolling, or a stupid troll..

Is this a serious question? Of course it's illegal! If another motorist accuses you of aiming a weapon at them and the police pull you over and find said weapon you will be arrested and jailed on the spot.

It is also incredibly stupid and irresponsible. You pull that crap in Georgia where I live (where everyone carries a gun) you will probably get your ass shot off.

Please get rid of your guns, take a defensive driving class and grow up.
