Re: CSGV Urges “SWATting” Gun Owners, Abuse Of 911 System

All jokes about these lunatics aside, I actually see a very problem possibly occurring.

Let's say that the woman who posted about yelling "he's got a gun", and taking off running actually does so. Now assume that this provokes a physical response from multiple people towards the individual that is carrying openly, and that person responds by drawing down on the two, maybe three people who rush them.

By my understanding of the law, the simple act of drawing your weapon constitutes deadly force, of course firing it certainly is.

THe problem I see here is A-No one can really identify the woman who yelled out, and took off running. B- The person carrying was potentially justified in drawing/firing their weapon at individuals who rushed them. So who is legally at fault in this situation? A woman who probably can't be identified, a law abiding citizen who defended themselves, or a few white knights who rushed the MWAG, and potentially paid for it with their lives?

Cut me some slack on this, I'm still new to carrying in Texas, just came back last December.
