Basic gun safety requires that you never ever point a gun at anyone unless of course you are planning on shooting that person.

What this idiot did on camera is illegal in almost every state as pointing a gun at anyone (especially a child) is considered to be threatening them with grievous harm and even death. Not just not cool but also not legal.

In Florida and many other states that boy would have been legally able to shoot that idiot.

What an incredible fuck stick.
