As lava threatens to take their homes and escape routes are becoming blocked, tensions are rising in the residential areas near Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island.

An argument between neighbors John Hubbard, 61, and Ethan Edwards, 32, escalated on Tuesday when Hubbard pulled out a gun.

Edwards lived in the area and had come back to check the damage on his home, which had been consumed by lava.

A video of the altercation, which cuts in about halfway through the argument, shows Edwards lunge towards the gun and Hubbard push him back. When Edwards lunges a second time, Hubbard fires a warning shot just above his head.

As Edwards screams: 'You've gotta be kidding, I live here', Hubbard yells at him to: 'Get the f*** out of here'.

I think he should've been charged for wearing dark, high-rise socks too.

I hesitated to post that knowing those folks are stressed out, unsure of their future and maybe living out of suitcases. But the firearm stupidity makes him fair game, in my book. You just don't do that shit. There's a case for taking every gun he owns.

10. Be afraid all the time. Right wing radio 24/7 pushes fright. So what should we expect?

I'd say am radio was pushing looting going on or could happen and citizens should be armed.
