Interviewees have stated he was yelling at people and pointing his weapon at them. There are other reports of verbal threats to shoot protesters. I don't condone the vandalism but it's really not the responsibility of the wannabe militia to take matters into their own hands. Deescalate and have a serious discussion and the protests will peter out. Unfortunately this isn't possible under Trump and it's only going to get worse as he keeps cheering them on and stirring the culture war pot.
