Road Rage with a Firearm

Attorney Marc J. Victor

Road Rage with a Firearm – Road Rage can lead to serious criminal charges if you display your firearm or threaten another driver with your firearm. First of all, there is nothing happening on the road that should cause you to get so angry that you would pull out your firearm and threaten another driver. This is a very easy and foolish way to end up with a dangerous felony on your record.

Road Rage is foolish, to begin with. If someone cuts you off or does something while driving that you feel was wrong, just smile and wave at them. Even flipping someone off could cause the situation to escalate, so just let it go. It’s not worth risking a felony conviction over the actions of another driver.

Remember, these are all first-world problems. The fact is, you are probably driving around in a late model car, with air-conditioning, and a nice sound system. If someone else is driving in a way that you don’t like, just let them go and get on with the rest of your day. Even if they are completely in the wrong…so what? Try to take a pause and remind yourself that this is a first-world “problem”, and you are fortunate to have such a “problem” in the first place.

Whatever you do, don’t be an idiot and pull out your firearm. Even if your intention is to only scare the other driver, you can be charged with a very serious, mandatory prison offense. If you simply display your firearm during a Road Rage incident, you can expect at the least to be charged with felony disorderly conduct which carries mandatory prison for those who are convicted. If you point your firearm at another driver, you will most likely be charged with aggravated assault dangerous, which is a Class 3 felony. This means you could serve 5-15 years in prison, and this is not probation eligible, even for first-time offenders.

So, don’t be an idiot and ruin what could be many years of your life over a foolish Road Rage incident. Instead, smile and turn up the music, relax, and go about your day. Nothing on the road should cause you to get angry enough to threaten another driver with your firearm. Remember, these are first-world problems you are experiencing.

This is my advice on how to avoid getting into a Road Rage incident.

Heavenly Father,
I come before You tired but not broken. You know my story. You have seen every door that has closed, every person who turned away, every night without a home to call my own.
Lord, I was wronged. I have the proof in my hands but no one to fight for me. I followed the rules. I trusted the system. I did what I was taught was right. Yet here I stand, still waiting for justice.
It started last May when Yanika Portillo had my car towed on the same day rent was due. I had to choose between getting my car out of impound or paying rent. I chose my car because I needed it to get to work and to get food. This was not random. It was premeditated. Other cars sat in that parking lot without license plates collecting dust but she targeted mine. The car I drove every single day.
When I went to the office to talk about this selectively enforced policy she turned it against me. She lied to the police. She told them she never drove her GMC Terrain to work. I paid for the police report and read those words myself. Then I took a photo of that same car parked right in front of the leasing office with the building number 8727 clearly visible. I have proof she lied. I thought lying to police to evict someone was illegal but it did not matter. That lie turned into an eviction I could not defend against. The system is not built to protect people like me.
I have over 70 documents that prove my case. Everywhere I go I am told I need an attorney. I tried. I retained Yash from Cronus Law and paid $1500 at a time when I could not afford to waste money. I thought if I planted the seed of justice it would grow if I watered it with determination, truth, and integrity. But my seed was stolen.
Father, I lift up Yanika Portillo to You. I do not pray for her destruction. I pray for her redemption. Bring her out of the darkness. Convict her heart. And end her power to do this to anyone else.
I also pray for the attorneys and the judges who looked the other way. Open their eyes Lord. Remind them of the oaths they took. Let justice not be something only the wealthy and connected can afford.
You know I have never been given an easy path. As a child I was ripped from my home because of false allegations against my parents. I went through over 24 homes in 12 months. Now I am 30 years old. A year ago I was stable, making $41 an hour, living okay. But just like my childhood, all it took was one fabricated lie to make me blacklisted, homeless, and unstable all over again.
If I was anyone other than Seth Printz maybe my outcome would be different. But my fate feels decided. After May 2026 my time to seek justice will have passed. I am not the only one going through this but I am the only one with proof. And it seems like it does not matter.
Lord, this was an execution of my life. I will never be able to buy a home. I will never be able to buy a car. I will never be normal again.
Please send me someone who will listen. Someone who will look at the proof and help me fight for what is right.
You promise in Your Word that You are a defender of the fatherless and the forgotten. I have no one but You. Be my advocate Lord. Send me an attorney with courage. Send me favor in places where I have only found rejection.
I believe You are still working even when I cannot see it. Give me strength to keep going.
Thank You for never leaving me. I trust Your timing even when it hurts.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen

Absolute incredible people here. Probably the best investment I've made in my life. These people are true patriots and sincerely care about your rights. I wanted to give a shout out to Liberty and Emma for being so supportive and helpful when needed. Living in California it is extremely difficult to maintain 2A rights here without complications and never-ending laws changing, but they really went above and beyond for me when it mattered most and I am super grateful to them. Emma reassured me and kept me up to date throughout my situation and I was confident that I was in good hands. I will definitely remain a proud member for life and would recommend anyone that is a 2A advocate to sign up for AOR. God bless.
