    There was a similar sounding case, north of Boulder, a year or so ago. Road rager follows a car. At some point the front car pulls over and RR jumps out for a confrontation, only to be met with the business end of a handgun. Rather then reflect on how his actions almost cost him is life, Mr. RR cries to the police that someone pulled a gun on him. Some people's children.

    IIRC that story was from an arfcom gut, again IIRC

    Don't go to arfcom, so don't know. This was in the Daily Camera and I think the Times Call.

    I flipped the bird at a guy tailgating and driving aggressively turned out was a North Carolina State Trooper with an attitude in an unmarked. Had a liquor license pending at the time and his BS charges cost me $500 to get tossed. Bad timing couldn't fight it without risking thousands on the license.
    If I remember the ticket correctly "displaying a gesture clearly intended to incite a hostile response" and "open container" (sealed bottle, he opened it).

    I don't flip the bird at anybody any more.

    So if I have my little girl in the back seat and some Jackhole cuts me off and then goes slow as hell causing me to slam on the brakes causing me to flip them off basically saying F-You using my freedom of speech and they decide to stop and get out of their car initiating a physical confrontation and I feel I need to act in a self defense manner I could be held accountable for being the aggressor? Not looking to argue just a question, doesn't make sense to me. I love flippin the bird when flippin the bird is needed but if the gesture is returned or some things said I could care less about beating that persons ass. I will usually just give a wave and a smile after.

    I do my best to keep a low profile, especially when I'm carrying. I'd hate to make a poor decision and put myself in a situation where my handgun has to get involved.
