Some rules
Barry notes that one local idiot got shot by another local idiot. One idiot gets out of his car and takes out his aggression on the other guy’s car. Having finished damaging the car, he heads back to his car and is shot in the leg.
First, the guy doing the shooting was not in danger. Had he drawn his weapon when the guy approached the car and the guy continued to advance, it could have been self defense.
Second, wounding shots (like warning shots) are always illegal. Period. If you’re unwilling to kill (the legal theory goes), then you’re life is not in danger.
Third, packing drunk is not cool. Nor is driving drunk.

Then the law is an ass.
