My husband and I had a home in their neighborhood and knew them. They, and their drinking pals were one of the main reasons we moved. Lots and lots of parties at their house, not surprised these two morons let the kids drink there. Steve told police he was looking for the guy that stole his daughters virginity. Imagine being his daughter and having to go back to school and face that?? Momma had to be coerced out of the house with a bullhorn that next morning. Their Mother inherited a lucrative company, James Downs Insurance, from her father when he passed. I am certain any conviction would not go over well with the Arizona Insurance Board. He must be real proud of her. They have a beautiful, VERY expensive home, which they will probably have to sell. What a waste and a shame that these two boneheads represent Arizona gun owners who are 99.999% responsible and respectful of their guns. These two have not only screwed the pooch, they will probably lose everything too.
I see that whoever posted this post was banned. I have no idea if they were banned over something they said in this post (I hope not) but I'm going to go ahead and amplify what this guy said, these people are a menace to the neighborhood and are the last people I want for neighbors and are also a blight upon the 2A community. Unfortunately they are representative of a large segment of the Eastmark Estates neighborhood, a couple with a little more money than the average middle class stiff who let it go to their heads and think that it makes them special.

I so get that he shouldnt be threatening teens ith a gun looking for his daughter but
Really .. call the cops?! He didn't shoot you. chalk it up to a bad day don't go there anymore and be done with it. I was a youngin I didn't go calling 911 every time someone threatened me with a gun or threatened to use a gun on me though they didn't have it in hand.
Absolutely true story .. had a young girls Father .. a low level gangster in queens press a gun to my temple at a BBQ. I came up with a witty quip that got the group of overweight Italian guys laughing and forever earned dads respect. Didnt even cross my mind to call the police. I wasn't shot and anything else would have been Pu$$Y.
Story is kind of amusing but I will save it for later.
Had a neighbor wave a gun at me one night because of a loud motorcycle .. Meh .. I was a dick and he was an old vet suffering from cancer and went to sleep early. he was actually a wonderful person and took my brothers and I under his wing and taught us the electrical trade. Crazy old drunk but he knew his stuff. I pissed him off .. he threatened to shoot me if I continued running down the block on a very loud motorcycle.
I said sorry .. your right and pushed my bike into the backyard. No harm no foul.
Those are only two stories. Seems guns pointed at me wasnt that strange coming up and you made decisions. Never called the cops
I too spent a few terrifying seconds of my adolescence "downrange" but of the handful of times it happened I was doing something that brought it on me. I was never doing anything that would've legally justified someone shooting at me, but I didn't call the cops because I didn't figure they'd care too much that some dude was shooting at me after I paid his daughter a midnight visit or swiped a 6'er of Coors at the Stop and Rob, so like you I never called the cops. What this man and his wife did went WAY beyond that. A) They got kids drunk, B) they pointed guns at kids multiple times who were in no way involved in his daughter's absence nor demonstrably knowledgeable about her whereabouts and C) jumped in their vehicle and chased these drunken kids (whom THEY provided alcohol) around a residential neighborhood so they could (again) point guns at them and threaten to shoot them. These people are nothing like the guys who pointed guns at you for a laugh or because they had a beef with you for something you did, these people are unhinged, reckless and a danger to anyone who has the misfortune of being around them when they're drunk and on the loose.
