I would have provoked him to call the cops, tell him you got it just down the road you were out. Get everyone involved just to make him look like an ass. I have an inspector similar to that, one which mouth moves faster than his thought.

So your daughter has a gun? That's so very impressive
In our family,thanks to my Southern US wife,we all carry guns everywhere,she bought a Tek9 for my youngest girl to take to school,I said no,that's a bit over the top,fists or a cricket bat should do,we all have AKs or ARs in our cars thanks to the NSWPD being unable to stop the almost daily murders,biker killings,armed robs,B,E & Steal offences,mob hits,carjackings and other crimes of violence.Can't beat the good old AKM,why,they always work,a stovepipe jam is easily cleared,that's why.
