A question for the Surly Law Brigade:

Let's say that the person taking that video sees the old man pull that gun, feels that his or her life is in imminent danger (as seems likely they did due to their rapid displacement to another location), and instead of running pulls a firearm of their own and perforates the shit out of the old guy.  Would that not clearly be a case of self defense and justifiable homicide under Texas law?  If not, why not?

They’d be fine if I were on their jury. Fuck that guy.

That's valid self defense in almost any jurisdiction.

People don't learn, but at least this kid isn't dead

According to a criminal complaint obtained by USA TODAY, Ashland City Police Department officers responded to a home for a report of a teenage Domino's pizza driver who had been shot at at least seven times.

Arriving officers located the shooting suspect who told them he and his wife saw a truck parked in their driveway on the Ring camera and thought someone was breaking into his truck, police wrote in the complaint

Ridiculous.  Even if it was someone breaking into his truck, shooting them is not justified.  Be a man and go whoop his ass if that's your thing.  Otherwise, lay low, take pictures, call the cops.
