Texas has laws which allows deadly force to protect property! Even if the family wasn't at risk...

What befuddles me is then how mentally deficient do you need to be in order to commit robbery or worse, like here...? When you risk your life doing so!

A foreign concept to NY politicians who feel you should submit to the will of the miscreants!

Yeah, in New Pork the protectors of the realm would still be busy writing fund raising tickets. Never mind that he would be in cuffs, cuz assumed guilty til proven innocent and the constitution be damned is the motto.

What I want to know is how that family had EIGHT family members inside that small ass sedan? And what ages? There’s no ‘effin way that the infants were in car seats…, or that there were EIGHT seatbelts in that car!

In high-school I participated in a pizza run with 9 guys in a Chevette.

We pooled some money and ordered a couple pizzas from the local pizza hut. Then the guy who owned the Chevette was going to pick it up, and someone said "if he goes alone half of it will be gone before he gets back".

Then one of the other guys said he'd go with him to make sure it was safe, and we said "now the whole thing will be gone".

So all 9 of us piled in for the trip. It must have looked like a clown car in the parking lot LOL.

Yep, in NYS the shooter would likely be in custody, for investigation of 2nd degree murder, possibly illegal handgun, and civil rights violations of the illegal.

12 blue states, the same.

Not even close. Article 35 is the law and it says deadly physical force can be used in this situation.

The pizzas did not make it to the car.

The guy who paid at the counter took off running with one box. Box in one hand and eating a slice with the other.

A chase ensued, i'm not sure what happened to the other box, but in the end I'm pretty sure everyone got 2 slices and most ended up running all the way back.
