Deadly force to protect property

Well, I'm glad I started this thread, because I figure I'd only use deadly force if I felt my life was in danger, now. I'm fully aware of how things turn out different than you would figure they would, because there are so many changing factors and variables even day to day.

I'm a little more confused though now too. I've read the laws lots of times, and the way I interpret them is.... I guess it has to do with interpretation including the interpretation of the police officer on the scene. I trust a police officer more than I would trust a jury of twelve people who were picked by lawyers(in my book lawyers are at the bottom of the barrel, below doctors and real estate agents) just kiddin' I've met one decent lawyer and there are some good doctors.

The law is always changing. Mr. Horn said that it made his life Hell, and if he had to do it over he wouldn't, but he shot the people that were robbing his neighbors' and they were leaving.

Who knows. it would totally be a situation that I pray to the Creator that I never have to make that decision.

On the other hand my dogs are my family and they are my best friends. It may be sad to some, but they are a very big part of my life and one of if not the most important thing to me.

rdjustham, did this occur in Texas?
