In Texas.... different.
We are not talking about stealing Tv's in here, don't change your tune, we are talking about protecting ourselves. Earlier you said that you can not do that. If anyone broke into my house and threatened me, or anyone else (in my house) I would put the statue to the test. I would rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6, if **** went wrong and they weren't there for a TV.

This is true indeed. They can also have a knife, but once you pull a gun on them and if they stop the aggression you must seize your defense. Otherwise it murder.
