A firearm is all offense.
I believe Texas has Castle Doctrine as well as domicile defense.
The trespassers are lucky the residents didn’t shoot them.
Lesson here is don’t trespass and mouth off about it and expect to go home unmolested.
The youths got off easy. Ergo, it will happen again.
“It was an end of school party and it’s in a link someone else posted. The kids live in some rental properties in that neighborhood and sent an invitation via social media.”
It may have start as an end of year party, but it escalated rapidly into something else. Here’s an eye witness account from a guy that actually lives there and knows what went down ...
Facebook friends and family – PLEASE HELP! That (now viral) video of the officer in McKinney subduing a girl in a bathing suit was in OUR neighborhood. The situation was NOT what is being reported…
A DJ setup in a public space next to the private pool in our neighborhood on Friday and played loud explicit (F-bomb) music for multiple hours (it is unclear if he was invited by a resident as no one has claimed responsibility). The teenagers (both black and white) were being brought into our neighborhood by the carload because the DJ was tweeting out invites to a “pool party” for $15 (obviously unauthorized by our neighborhood). The teens began fighting with each other and pushing their way into our private pool. Some were jumping our fence. The security guard was accosted when he tried to stop the beginnings of this mob scene. Some residents who live around the park/pool area tried to come out and settle things down. The teens started yelling racial slurs at our neighbors and started assaulting people and property (throwing bottles at cars and attacking a mother at the pool with 3 young children). The first officer on the scene was by himself. At that time, the party had grown to a large, aggressive crowd. As the officer arrived, many teens started running through our neighborhood. Many of the teens were being very aggressive and yelling at the officers as more arrived.
This was a very dangerous situation for the officers AND the teens/residents not involved. The news media has refused to hear the neighborhood’s side of this story. The video being distributed is only a very small segment of what happened. This information being distributed by the media and others is extremely distorted and in some cases outright lies.
PLEASE HELP US STOP THE BROADCASTING OF THIS IGNORANCE. The media is trying to make it look like our neighborhood is a white’s only, racist area. Anyone who has spent even a few minutes in our area knows this is an outright LIE.
The unfortunate result is that our neighbors are now being threatened. We have also had cars and property in and around the park area vandalized this weekend. Unfortunately, the press and social media are trying to enflame the situation.
I am asking for your help for my family and my neighbor’s safety…PLEASE, PLEASE do not rebroadcast any of these lies.
Even in Texas, had a resident shot and killed any of the so-called trespassers, the resident would have been charged with, and likely convicted of, murder.
Al_c, many thanks for finding this! It shows what went on before the vid was taken.

What they call it where I live is trespassing.... and the potential to be a mob or a riot. Arrest them, haul them off to jail, or let them go home and burn their own neighborhood. I don’t care. If they refuse to be arrested, or refuse to leave.... do whatever is necessary.
Be certain, they were trespassing. Nobody has the right to go to someone elses property, have a party, create a scene, and resist arrest when the cops are called.
I just want to be in with what is current, do we hate or love cops this week here at Free Republic?
What? Firearms can be drawn for offensive reasons and for defensive reasons.
Sounds like we need lots more like her!
bit of both on this thread it seems.
Thats the story on the media. Saw totally different story from the people who live there and the 911 calls all saying the same thing. The racial slur accusation comes from the same kids bragging on their twitter about stomping white folks.
