Re: Mentioning You Are Carrying

Welcome to the forum, Chuck!

Threatening the use of a firearm is legally the use of force.

Therefore, you'd better have a thorough understanding of Texas Penal Code Chapter 9, Justification Excluding Criminal Responsibility to know when you can or cannot threaten a firearm without getting arrested yourself for assault.

Even if I leave all the use of deadly force out of the discussion, there are still a lot of topics to read and understand:

§9.02. JUSTIFICATION AS A DEFENSE
§9.04. THREATS AS JUSTIFIABLE FORCE
§9.22. NECESSITY
§9.31. SELF-DEFENSE
§9.33. DEFENSE OF THIRD PERSON
§9.41. PROTECTION OF ONE'S OWN PROPERTY
§9.43. PROTECTION OF THIRD PERSON'S PROPERTY
