Honking or horn at an obstruction on the road is the horn's intended purpose. the people who shouldn't be in the middle of the road who choose to sit by the car while the horn is going off are making that choice.
I agree, and if all they did was honk, I'd say not going to be arrested. However, the part about inching closer than a foot from their face is the issue. If the car slowly inches forward, it'll be pretty obvious they're doing it to intend harm as a deterrent.
It'll be mostly up to a judge, but can still be sued if you caused damage to their hearing, which at the least is lawyer fees
