Double naught; you, obviously did not read where I admitted I jumped to conclusions. Read the whole thread, calm down....stay current
The cops were called and the owner was forced to stop the threat of the gun firing crazed drunken fella before the cops arrived...Employees at the Park Tavern Bar, 196 East Lake Drive, removed 52-year-old Lawton resident Charles Timothy Taylor from the bar after patrons complained about his behavior. Once Taylor was outside, he pulled a knife and tried to stab the employees and some patrons, according to the OSBI.
The employees ran back into the bar, locking the doors. They called 911 and the bar's owner to the scene. The bar's owner, who was armed with a gun, arrived just before police.

The OSBI says Taylor first tried to stab employees when he was asked to leave Park Tavern. The employees called police and the owner — who arrived before police. The OSBI says witnesses told investigators that Taylor began shooting into the bar and the owner returned fire — killing Taylor.
Oklahoma Club owner was at home, gets a call that a man won't leave and is drunk and disorderly. Police were also called. Drunk guy left club and is across the street. Club owner shows up, gets out of his car with a gun, drunk guy comes from across the street shooting, Club owner kills drunk guy.
Should Club owner have come ready with gun in hand?
A prudent draw, when deadly force has already been employed, is NOT brandishing, so you did use the term inaccurately IMO.
How does the "stand your ground" or "justifiable homicide" apply in the following senerio:

If he was not part of the situation at hand should he not have waited for the police?
If you put yourself in harms way how are you standing your ground?
