    Couple follows teens home after the teens had cut them off... driver from couple throws first punch, gets his ass beat, then wife brings out the gun... couple is in trouble. What do you think?

    couple is probably in trouble, horn, finger, move on with life.

    The only grey area is, did driver back off after getting his ass handed to him and the teens pursue/continue. At least here that would turn the teens into aggressors for round 2.

    Not according to the current info. The video shows most of it, but not all:

    "Deputies say what's not seen on the video is the husband firing several rounds into the pickup truck as he left."

    IMO the husband is completely on the hook for escalating things way out of proportion to a common road incident. I think the only possible grey area was the wife bringing out the gun initially while her husband was getting a complete 2-against-1 beat down. Hard to blame her for using that to bring that part of it to an end.

    Yep, just because you pick a fight that you can't win doesn't give you the right to continue that fight with a gun.

    My concern would be if someone followed a gun owner who the second had an angry man approach draw down... Knowing now that they had a gun in their car it could have turned out really bad. Serves this guy right. Ass beating and now possible charges...

    If the teens where carrying and drew on the man, I'm sure he would of backed up. But, I think the ass beating was much better. What an idiot that guy is and he has probably done that stuff before.

    Guy had that beat down coming! If you walk into a fire wearing gasoline pants... you are gonna get burned!

    Rights are not void of responsibilities. As a responsible gun owner... he had a duty to avoid that situation and NOT escalate it like he did!

    Well this is so educational. If this happens to you, just call *277 (CSP) or 911. Never chase the asshats down. Now if they chase you to your house...
