in australia, you could be arrested for what you did. you could be arrested just for having the gun in the car at all. the other guy should be arrested too, obviously, but i dont think many people would advocate that he should be shot.
My car was forced off the road and partially stuck in a ditch. I tried to drive away but I was stuck. I had to get a tow truck to get me out. What incited this guy, I do not know, all I know was that a black Impala was trying real hard to sideswipe me repeatedly. I could not see the driver since his windows were black tinted. I was simply on an errand for my work. I did what I had to do to protect myself and I am glad I was armed. I think you need to be in my shoes at the time to feel what I felt to react as I did. I was really quite shaken up and glad that I did not fire.

Yes, the old cliche: You had to be there...

Old cliches are often truisms.
