There's a world of difference between "having an argument" and "picking a fight". I see absolutely no evidence whatsoever that this guy was "picking a fight" with a woman... rather, he was "having an argument". If we're simply discussing the subject matter in hand (in this case parking in retard spaces), and assuming there is no intimdation or threatening behaviour, then it makes absolutely no difference whether it's a man or woman. None.
What's it got to do with equality? You're using the fact she's a woman as ammo against him. Forgive me, I assumed you were in favour of gender equality. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm torn on the matter, to be honest. On the one hand, I do think that in an armed country, people should have the right to defend themselves against threats to life. And banana is right that this guy has a split second to determine if his life is at risk. That said, this dude does appear to take it a little too far, like why doesn't he shout "get the fuck down, on the floor", some shit like that? It's a reckless reaction, probably influenced by anger rather than fear for life. But I have absolutely no idea what goes on in peoples' heads in that split second they have to make a judgement, so other than to say he's a piece of shit, I can't really say if I think he should be jailed for this. He was pushed over forcefully, fear is a natural emotion to feel in the seconds that follow. How would I react? Fuck knows.
Keep in mind, this dude is basically a gun nut. This is an as biased an account of things as you could get.
And yet the first thing he says is to NOT GET INTO FIGHTS.
JUST CARRYING A FIREARM DOES NOT GIVE YOU A RIGHT TO BE THE JERK.
JUST CARRYING A FIREARM DOES NOT MAKE YOU THE ENFORCER OF ANY MORAL CODE.
I like this guy.
