Pointing a real firearm at a person should always be treated as if the holder wants to kill a person.

Agreed, that's a good rule to stay safe, but that's not what the law says.

There are exceptions, none of them apply here.

Im sure I'd agree if i read it, but I'm ignorant to the details of this story. I am solely interested in the claim that pointing a gun means intent.
