One of the knives fell out in the floor board of his vehicle and was seen by the roving security guard who looked into his car window and saw the knife.
Hmm You mean to tell me that there are different severity\'s of pointing ones finger? Just who is to decide intent in this matter ?

Thanks all for the supportive and kind words. I guess it is a federal and state crime to make any gesture with harmful intent. That is what the officer told me. I do not know a specific statute or anything. I clarified that this law did not only apply to school, basically, if you walked up to a person, pointed your finger, and this person, or anyone around, felt their safety was endangered, then you broke the law.
