I would have walked away. I certainly would have not pulled a gun. The law isn't going to protect you if you pull a gun and shoot someone over personal property. I'd prefer for the car to be totaled and insurance can buy me a new one.

Sure, it must be a horrible sight to see your car damaged but once you step back and realize it's only material, you would not intervene.

This, especially if you would be a male, could seriously put your life in danger as you are outnumbered. There's a fair chance they will jump you, as they did with this M5.
They are drunk, and not have any logical thinking or behaviour at that time. Some of them might actually never be sane.

Pulling a gun (if you would be crazy enough to carry one with you) is something you would not like to do unless you are really ready to shoot, and you will go to jail.

Over a car? No way, only if loved ones were in danger.
In Texas is called self defense an the video would prove that you were trying to protect your own private property. I carry 1 in the chamber and a 15 clip mag in addition to two additional mags. so one shot per person should be enough to allow you to leave the place. Just don't reload since you would be most likely dead.
