They are quite lucky that woman was not my mother because she'd have pulled out her gun and been like, I told you to move, damnit.
That's pretty stupid of her.
Without hesitation, because she is brandishing a weapon, anyone else simply watching the scene from a distance feeling even slightly any emotion is justified to shoot her to death as a form of self defense.
Never draw a weapon unless the intent is to use it, and in her case she would only intend to use it as a threat not a deterrence, and therefore deserves to die in this imaginary scenario.
Do you have any idea how deranged this sounds to the rest of the world
It's deranged to Americans too. This guy is nutso.
Do you think it's normal to see a civilian draw a weapon and point it to another one? First thing I would think is that she's gonna kill them, but I'm not American.
