A visibly placed shotgun may help keep tempers in check. However I do like the video camera/cell phone take on it since that keeps the cops attention on the idiot instead of on the guy exercising his constitutional rights.

The pistol isn't for intimidation purposes. I keep it concealed where no one will see it. The reason for the pistol ( Colt 1911 .45 ACP) is just in case I happen upon a situation where I feel my life is being threatened. If my life is in danger, I fill you sp full of lead you'll be able to write with your Di#k! That being said, This pistol thing is a last resort. It's for saving my own life only, and nothing else.
