Again, the brandishing law is not the issue, neither is open carry. The issue is what does the law they were charged under say?  Additionally Dutton can clearly be seen at a ready position he was trained for patrols in Iraq, did he think Al-Quida was in Leigh?  Also there is the allegation that they followed someone home.  Again, who was with Dutton's kids? Who was watching Cobb's property? How can you claim to need to do a patrol because of damage done to your property by leaving the property and possibly young children alone?  Cobb supports must always omit certain facts in order to argue on behalf of Cobb.  plenty of people leave teenagers alone at home, in fact, dare I say MOST people do that. When you have a young child and a teenager, it is pretty much common place, not to mention legal, to leave them at home with teenage siblings......especially if you consider where they live.    it's not that cobb supporters must omit certain facts, it's that anti cobb people must trump up loose and baseless excuses in order to condemn him.      the video clearly shows cobb being harrassed, then responding in kind with just words from afar.
