22.05 explicitly covers pointing a firearm at a person.

22.05(a) says

"(a) A person commits an offense if he recklessly engages in conduct that places another in imminent danger of serious bodily injury."

and 22.05(c) says

"(c) Recklessness and danger are presumed if the actor knowingly pointed a firearm at or in the direction of another whether or not the actor believed the firearm to be loaded."

It would seem to follow from the way I read it then that pointing a firearm (loaded or unloaded) at or in the direction of another would be a deadly conduct violation. Of course a lawyer could twist any meaning he wanted out of it.

Is not knowingly pointing a firearm (loaded or unloaded) at another person a Class A misdemeanor under penal code 22.05(c) (deadly conduct)?
