It should be noted there is a difference in going out of your way to join a fight and being caught in the middle of a gun fight.

I agree this should not be the norm, but I sure hope gun fights are not the norm. If a gun fight takes place and you are in a place of danger why not protect yourself and those around you?

I actually agree with you entirely. And frankly, this situation bridges the two, in my opinion. It says the police had the suspect boxed in, and the guy got out of his car and joined the fight. No information on whether he was the next car over or a dozen back in traffic. I would treat the two differently. I’ll admit that my mental image of what happened was influenced by the repeated language of him “joining” the gun fight.
