Streamer StableRonaldo caused a stir after a clip from his recent IRL stream showed him pointing what looked like a gun toward another car while driving in Los Angeles. The incident happened after he told viewers he felt followed by a fan. In the short clip, StableRonaldo can be seen taking out a handgun and racking the slide to chamber a round, then tapping the weapon against a car at a traffic light. While no gunshots were heard, viewers reported he appeared to pull the trigger several times.Many viewers are unsure if the gun was real or a replica. Some think it was an airsoft or BB gun because of the plastic sound when tapped and how the slide worked. StableRonaldo has shown similar replica guns on previous streams, including visits to airsoft stores. Even if it is fake, showing a gun in public can be illegal. Brandishing laws make it a crime to point a weapon at someone in a threatening way, and California has strict rules for this.
