Thanks for your responses. This is one of those fine lines I want to know how to negotiate. I don't know about Florida where the event occurred, but here in Missouri the threat must be eminent. I don't know that walking around holding a gun or even waving it up in the air is an eminent threat. Now, the instant he points at someone, I consider it my moral obligation to bring him down.
