In Texas, one of the Many justified reasons for using force is "to prevent theft at nighttime"
Not saying I would kill some kid for stealing my hubcaps, hubcaps are not worth someones life, but you could use deadly force. And yes probably be sued in a civil suit.
COZ,
Where did you take your class ? (assuming you took one)
"Go for a low bleeding shot and drag them inside" ? DO NOT Drag them anywhere, and why aim low? Do you want them to suffer???
"If you advance I will be in fear of my life and use deadly force...." I am NOT going to give the BG's a speach on what I might do
I may draw down and tell them to freeze, maybe that's all it would take to stop their B and E.
You say...... "Hopefully, they are stupid enough to pull knives and advance and you can practice a bit........"
I would NEVER hope someone pulls knives so that I can "practice a bit" Have you lost it??
If your post was in jest (I hope it was ) Please use Smilies so we don't think you are some kind of wacko or something
