It’s a shame. Friends escaped from Victorville a few years ago for Lake Havasu City. They’re really happy.

"Morally I see nothing wrong with shooting a fleeing shoplifter"

I do not know if "Right on the Border means Texas", but in TX we can use deadly force to protect our property after dark.

When you go to trial, you will find that the courts do not care what you consider to be moral.

They look at you and try to figure out which law is the most likely to send you to jail and then they interpret it as best they can to your disadvantage.

Shooting a shoplifters makes it easy for them. Shooting a fleeing shoplifter is icing on the cake.

Those who carry had better know the law if they want to stay out of prison.
