“To even threaten someone with a hand gesture could cost me my permit.”

So....in your state “to brandish” includes imitating a gun with your fingers. A lot of kindergartners are looking at some hard time!

“Check you later.”

Not "brandishing". Brandishing specifically relates to a weapon.

Intimidation does not.

IC 35-45-2-1...

(c) "Threat" means an expression, by words or action, of an intention to:

(1) unlawfully injure the person threatened or another person, or damage property;

In this circumstance, the threat would be a felony.

If you carry, you need to be very careful with your conduct.
