I want this guy as my neighbor.
There is a link to listen to the actual 911 call…typical old country boy that don’t fuck around.
he did a good thing, he should not be charged imo.
he did the right thing, but he will probably be charged wtih something. The law doesn’t like citizens to have that much power. 
I think his defense is if he says it looked liked they had a gun pointed at him…if not chaces are he will serve some time.
if 911 tells you not to go outside, and you basically tell then you are going to grab your shotgun and go kill them, it pretty much throws the self defense argument out of the water. He should have hung up with 911 and did his deed, then called back in and told them to send a coroner with 2 bags because they tried to attack him.
True…that recording is going to own him…he was like, “Hey!!!, Your Dead!!!” then blasted those fools 3 times.
Old news, he was in the wrong and will be prosecuted
Not that old…it happened Friday I think
Edit…it happened last Wed…so it is a little old…either way i just heard about it
I’d take him as a neighbor anyday. That whole phone call isn’t going to pan out well for him, but the phone call doesn’t prove what the robbers did in his front yard.

The Texas Penal Code says a person can use force or deadly force to defend someone else’s property if he reasonably believes he has a legal duty to do so or the property owner had requested his protection.
The neighbor, however, would have been on much safer legal ground if he had been trying to protect his own property, LaFon said.
I hope they are able to defend him. It’s about lawfulness and lawlessness, if we continue to let criminals win no matter what they are doing, we deserve the inevitably horrible outcome.
I agree, but you really can’t let ordinary fucked up citizens (you and me) decide who lives and dies.
My luck would be instead of robbers, it was my neighbors uncle or something going over to feed the dog and I shot him thinking it was a thief. 
I agree as well, but I am curious to see what kind of spin the lawyers are going to put on this. It’s too early to say what’ll happen, crazier things have occurred.
If these guys were shot in the back it is gonna be pretty hard to defend.
Wouldn’t you guys expect your neighbor to do something about it if they had the ability?
I don’t think he should be charged really either…but it’s true, some people would take it out of hand if it’s legal.
I’m sure he won’t get a full sentence of any sort like if it were just murder.
i dont think people pry open the back door and leave with bags full of shit when they go over to feed a dog.
shouldn’t of called 911, see if they find you guilty 
all i heard officer was some loud bangs, thought it was a thunderstorm brewing :kekegay:
maybe they forgot their key and are taking bags of laundry to their house. 
I have no idea what will happen from this incident. However I believe in Texas you are allowed to use deadly force to defend property. But I would assume this means your property, not your neighbors.
Give him a job as border patrol …
maybe you suck dick for nickels
and actually according to the constitution he only shot 2/5 of a person.
