    Man in Texas Kills 2 Men with a Shotgun for Robbing Neighbor

    Texas Penal Code states a person can use deadly force to defend another person's property if he reasonably believes he has a legal duty to do so or the property owner had requested his protection.

    hear the 911 call and read more here.

    So, should this guy get away with killing two men in order to protect his neighbours property or should he be tried just as everyone else? This guy shot another man in the face with a 12 gauge at 15 ft. Anyone else know what that looks like?

    So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

    1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
    2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
    3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
    4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

    Am I close here?

      "Anyone else know what that looks like?"

      Looks like he won't be robbing anyone else anytime soon. Don't they have a similar law in Florida passed by the Bush brother?

        i think he should be tried like everyone else. guy sounded crazy on that 911 call.

        he could have done so many different things, taken a picture... wait for police to come and describe them to them blah blah.

        but this is texas and that state is fucked up so he will probably get off

          its funny to read this because this is what i have to study for my final in 2 weeks for my criminal law class for my first semester of my first year of law school, basically the model penal code allows the use deadly force if there is absolutely no other way to avoid deadly harm to yourself. The only exception is that they are in their house "the castle doctrine" and even their it depends from state to state, sometimes you have a duty to retreat or some other justification. basically your never allowed to use deadly force if there is any other alternative. but in texas, who the fuck knows..... you can shoot someone in the face, if they are stealing your hub caps at night. but in this case it looks like he went against what the dispatcher said so yea hes most likely gonna get charges with murder,
          but then again if there is a "reasonable person" analysis attached to a "neighbors castle doctrine" then he could use a justification of self defense or the reasonable person standard could be construed to include a "reasonable texas hick who has been robed before". the a jury in poduck ass texas could let him off. america, fuck yea.

            hey fuck em. Ive been robbed before by a certified mentally ill ex-friend of mine, who has a fetish for chasing people with a machete. If someone tries to come into my house to rob me, they are FUCKED. I will blow them right back through the door.....

            I would use the deadliest force available to me.... I will NOT live in fear.

                In Louisiana, you can use deadly force if someone breaks in you home, so i wont be fearing any big bubba trying to get in my ass. What am I supposed to do, let them in and hid the closet while they help themselves. FUCK THAT! If I was home the last time someone broke in and ransacked my place, there would have had an extra mess to clean up....
                Now I don't know if I would go kill someone for breaking into my neighbors house.... but mine, You Damn Skippy!

                  yea theres exceptions to the rule namely the "stand your ground" exception, but this dude was in his house calling the police about his neighbors house, he basically has no justification for self defense. but of course you can blow someone away if they are in your house ... its fuckin ammmuuurrica isent it?

                    at the very most, the guy should have shot at them and held them until the cops could get there, and not killed them. Frankly I've heard the call and the way this guy is talking it sounded more like he was just itching to kill some people that night. That guy should get 50 years for that shit.

                        he could still face time in jail if he used deadly force and didnt kill him. there is a lot of things he could have done besides using a gun. if anyone wants to read up about self defense and the justification of deadly force read about this guy, some of use here might be old enough to remember this case in the paper. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernhard_Goetz
