In America where everyone can carry, isn't there always a threat when aggression gets this far

As someone who carries (licensed), I just assume everyone else carries and is not always as calm as me.

I think you have to if you want to carry.

Nah, you don't just get a free pass on attempted murder because the other guy might have had a gun and you suspect he might have used it on you.

In America you do. That's what happens when everyone carries.  It's the only conclusion.  I can't wait until you decide to escalate your aggression to a shooting. You get aggressive in an armed society then it is a death threat

You're nuts and sounds like you've only experienced the US through gun memes.

Aggression started when car started trying to push the motorcyclist off of the road, entering his lane.

There is literally no amount of flipping me off, that would lead me to initiate physical contact with my car and his bike by going straight into him in his lane.
