I'm not quite sure how to word this but I got threatened at the place I work at.

It's weird, because I can't quite say that it was a direct threat.

Basically what happened is that two kids walked into the store asking for a lighter. Age restriction. I don't give a fuck and actually give them some recommendations on some places that could possibly serve the needs they want in terms of a 2 dollar fucking bic lighter. Instead, they beg me for it, before asking me if I heard of what happened to the neighboring 7/11.

Mind you, the neighboring 7/11 got raided by multiple kids ranging from the age of 14-20. Ironic number, because I know one of the ones who is a regular who is 20 that is obviously connected to the two that came in later.

The two asked me if I heard of "Lee" who got his head cracked with a vase at the counter. I promise you, genuinely, because I thought they were shooting the shit after me telling them about the neighboring places that they could get "goods" from (oh shit, fed activity), I responded by showing them my 10 inch karambit and telling them I wasn't worried about it. (didn't flick it/show blade, didn't try to brandish it as in "hey I'll hurt you", just simply like "hey i'm good, no worries")

It wasn't until they left immediately after "brandishing" that I realized they were trying to threaten me with that 7/11 comment. I genuinely had no idea. Now, I wonder if I should get a autism diagnosis. Only because I asked two people who came in afterwards if it sounded like a threat and they agreed. What do you all think? I honestly feel like an asshole for "brandishing" a weapon towards some kids who were literally talking about someone cracking a head at the neighboring gas station and me showing that I can defend myself; not even in a "fuck you way" but like "hey, I"m alright".

I dunno, do I get a lawyer after this?

Nah dude I think yer fine. They wont tell anyone you threatened them because snithces get stitches. They are gonna tell the other kids that they shouldn't fuck around while you are on shift.

In their eyes you didn't even flinch when they were threatening you. You basically told them you are prepared to open a clown up without acting like you cared one way or another. They think you are cold as ice.
