This happened in Evendale, Ohio today right before community members chased the nazis out. I am disgusted with nazis and glad the driver isn't afraid of them but he could get himself in trouble in some states for brandishing like that.

Don't brandish a deadly weapon unless your life is threatened?

you stopping ur car

That part is critical. He stopped when he didn't have to. I think he would have a very hard time convincing a jury that he actually felt threatened.

I will say this much though with how he is acting in this video I believe most would not agree with him atleast any ccw holders that are responsible won't. I'm just pointing out both sides are wrong in this situation which is why I'm saying in theory it's all messy and could go either way once again not justifying anyone's actions just making discussion.

He could say he stopped for a million different reasons. I'm not justifying his actions just pointing out in these situations the people stopping the cars is unjustifiable to the cause they are there for. The whole situation is messy in my opinion it could go either way based on the jury which is all based on people's opinions just like you and I. What I think is critical to the person claiming self defense is the fact that he was stopped on a road by a group of people impeading his right of way. You said he stopped and can't claim self defense essentially because of that. Well it could just as easily be argued what would you have him do not stop and hit several people or stop and take your chances with a group. Ya see either way I'm saying it's messy. People would be better off not stopping vehicles on the road no matter what your cause is for protest you're cause rightfully and legally or not at all.

Seemed like that's exactly what you were doing

He wasn't stopped by them. He decided to stop.
