Mini van? Is there a red soccer ball on the back flank? Big Chief Soccermobile?

Leaving is always the best option. Yes, even if you have to violate a traffic ordinance.

If the weapon is not pointed my way, I may not have to shoot. So, I leave.

Could be Intimidation, could be assault with dead weapon. Don't know, I'll let the prosecutor sort it out, as I will be gone. *beep, beep*
