Road rager points knife that looks like gun
"Resistance to sudden violence, for the preservation not only of my person, my limbs, and life, but of my property, is an indisputable right of nature which I have never surrendered to the public by the compact of society, and which perhaps, I could not surrender if I would." John Adams

So had someone shot her in self-defense, they would have been justified because it looks like a gun. But how is it assault with a deadly weapon for pointing a knife at someone?

Probably the same way it's armed robbery if you stick up the local convenience store with only a "finger gun" in your hoodie pocket.Pariah3j wrote:So had someone shot her in self-defense, they would have been justified because it looks like a gun.

It says the knife was designed to look like a handgun, so it would fall in the same category as pointing a realistic airsoft gun at someone in traffic or while making an "undocumented withdrawal" at a bank.Pariah3j wrote:So had someone shot her in self-defense, they would have been justified because it looks like a gun.
