I would like to get opinions on what constitutes “brandishing” a pistol.
I always thought it meant waving a gun around in the air but apparently that’s not the half of it.
I’ve read recently were brandishing can mean just showing a trouble maker that you have a gun in a holster on your person.
I would assume the definition of brandishing is going to be different in different states and locales, but in the end, is it really just up to a judge to decide on their own what brandishing is?
