I'm a bit unclear as to when defensive display is warranted. I want to hear from some of you who have defensively displayed in situations and if there were any ill effects.
Also, the statute seems a bit grey in the area. It states the whole "reasonable person" stuff. I bet I could get a jury of 12 people who would think it is unreasonable to defensively display under any circumstance, just as I could probably get a jury of 12 who would see it as completely justified. I've digressed.
If you have defensively displayed (whether verbally announcing, exposing the firearm, placing hand on firearm, etc.), what kinds of things have you encountered?
Cheers to all,
Doug
