That's the problem, reasonable. The witnesses, police, and prosecutor didn't think a reasonable person would see this as a threat justifying lethal force.
To the forum in general, there have been a couple of threads on here in the last few weeks that give me cause for concern. If I walk down to the last pump at the gas station because that's the only one with paper towels, do I need to worry that an actual functioning adult is going to draw down on me for getting too close to his truck, and invading his personal space?
I'm honestly starting to worry as much about the grocery cart and gas pump defenders as the bums sleeping behind the gas station.
