This reminds me of an experience my daughter had when she was fire captain. She opened the station front door and was facing a kid who was pointing a gun at her. She said before she thought she grabbed his gun hand and pulled him against the wall. She had him against the wall by his throat. It turned out he found the gun and was trying to turn it in.

Easy come, easy go. Why would it be illegal to find a gun? We found a gun behind Universal Electric, and the next day, two biker dudes were searching around the old shed, with a suicide door Lincoln, and a Karmann Ghia. Thankfully, they didn't ask us about it, because of my autism, I can't seem to lie. Now the guys were practicing on the shed, and it upset me, because of the school being in the line of fire. Always be sure of your backstop. Can't believe he was charged for finding a pistol, and charged for bullets. The founding fathers, would be extremely disappointed.

Only legal gun owners get charged with brandishing for some reason.
