I can't, either; but some DAs and police chiefs do not favor citizens protecting themselves or their property. They could use the letter of the law to make life difficult for the honest citizen.

Plenty of real-life examples of people being arrested without breaking the law at all have been posted in this forum.

What about the "big screwdriver" that the BG had in his hand? Wouldn't that be considered a deadly weapon and therefore the OP would be fully justified in pulling his handgun?
