He asked for it.
See, down here we know if you show a gun, you plan to use it. In fact you don't show it until you are aiming and firing. There are very few instances where this rules does not apply. As a citizen, you give less notice then a police officer. Once you pull, you are using it. Of course circumstances dictate the situation, but in this case, if he was carrying legally, he should have fired once they made one step closer to him, or back away to keep the peace.
Now, this all hinges on a legit situation that calls for a gun. This definitely was not one of those situations. If some losers are being rowdy in public, you just walk away. If you think it's your place to be a vigilante and move/push them elsewhere, think again.
Like I said, he got what he asked for. He should be happy he wasn't shot with his own gun.
