At that point, witnesses said the driver of the car Smith first threatened pulled out a 9 mm handgun, pointed it at Smith, and told him he was going to disarm him. That man then took the handgun from Smith and determined it was fake.

Drunk road rage guy pulls a fake gun. CCW holder (assuming as it doesn't specifically say) pulls a real gun and disarms drunk road rage guy.

Pulling a fake gun on somebody in Boise — or anywhere else in ID — can get you killed. Most guys there are armed, legally or not. It’s almost as dangerous as playing the same game on an L.A. freeway, LOL. FWIW I’m an Idaho native and now live near L.A.

The perp is lucky he isn't dead. Mr. Good Guy showed amazing restraint.

He'd have been completed justified in popping this idiot.

Yep completely. Bad guy better be finding Jesus because that's really the only reason he's still alive imo.

A couple of boys from back here in western Pa. moved there with their guns and the guns are alive but the boys are dead. It was a news story a while back and which I took part in covering at the parents home very sad....
