“At the trial, the judge mistakenly ruled that merely displaying a gun was the use of deadly force. That goes against common sense and several precedents.”
I would not describe that as a “mistake”. Maybe “ideology showing” but not “mistake”.
That’s how I’m taking it too, this was activism by the judge. Anything to diminish the effectiveness of being able to carry a firearm. What is the point of carrying if you can’t diffuse a situation by showing, but not firing, a firearm?
