Looks like Peacock lost control of his temper and paid the price. If someone cornered me like that I'm guessing that at the very least they would be looking down the barrel of a gun.
An example of when a gun saves (innocent)lives ?

HOUSTON -- A man was shot and killed by another motorist after he cut the driver off, approached his sport utility vehicle and punched out the driver's side window with his fist, police said.
Marcus Peacock, 38, died at Ben Taub General Hospital after the altercation Wednesday evening at a busy intersection in southwest Houston.
David Russo, 32, shot Peacock in the chest several times after Peacock deliberately cut off Russo with his Mercedes, blocked the SUV's path, then beat so hard on the window that it broke, police said.
Russo, who had a Texas concealed handgun license, has not been charged. He told police he feared for his life. Authorities said they did not know what provoked Peacock.
Police said Thursday the case would be referred to a grand jury.
