A CHL is not a "get out of jail free" card (quite the opposite) and it is not a Batman license. I'll say it again, walking around with a loaded gun is a serious decision burdened with increased responsibilities requiring maturity and good judgement.Keith B wrote:

And just because someone is a bully in traffic doesn't give you the right to assault them with a deadly weapon. License plate numbers and a call to the police are the proper method.
Sadly, there aren't any idiot/maturity tests required to obtain a driver's license....either.

Re: Shots fired in Mopac road rage incident
Give them time and they will be all over it.
I had a jerk do almost the same thing. I exited and he nearly took out the barricades to exit with me. I slowed down, he slowed down. I pulled to the side and stopped. He pulled to the side and stopped. That is when my hand went to the butt of the Kimber. We sat there for awhile and I guess I out waited him, he drove off. I guess they think it is a game.

Re: Shots fired in Mopac road rage incident
I will admit that he could have handled the situation better. I don't want to make any excuses for him shooting at the antagonizer's vehicle, but for those that have never driven on Mopac there are not just a whole lot of convenient options to exit and still get to where you are going. I drive that way everyday and in 100 degree temps during rush hour it is not a very pleasant drive!
