Maybe we all need to have signs posted on our property that says “If you trespass on my property, I will have to assume your intentions are to harm my family and me. As such, your life will be at risk, as I will defend my family and myself. If you value your life, please do not trespass.”
Texas has Castle doctrine we already have the legal right to assume that anyone unlawfully entering our vehicle, place of business or home by their uninvited presence is prima facie evidence of nefarious intent. No retreat is necessary nor is any warning with regard to the use of force. In Texas when the use of force is authorised it is again automatically implied that deadly force is expected. Yes I was for 11 years in law enforcement I’m intimately familiar with Texas Penal code.
Pretty wordy, but if anyone actually takes the time to read it all, it would give you more time to react.
