Isn't the number one rule of being armed to never initiate any conflict? That works real well in the real world. 
EDIT: Watched it again. The genius pulled out a tire iron against a guy who was clearly armed with a gun. Clean shooting if he shot him, other than the aforementioned part. |
I open and concealed carry, depending on what I'm wearing. Suit to my office is open simply because I can't concealed with a shirt and tie and pants that don't stretch.
I agree that the approach by the guy carrying is a bit off. You know you are carrying and you instigate... Not the brightest. However, once the other guy gets the tire iron, its game on.
When he started opening the trunk the guy carrying should have left. Seriously, what if he had just come from the range with his AR15 in the trunk? That could have ended badly.
