You overestimate Abbott. He sent his jackbooted thugs against someone who dared to try and make a living during Abbott’s “lockdown.”

He died doing what he loved to do.

Depends, I guess - but if I had to answer the charges, I'd claim battlefield habits/PTSD.

I had to protect my 13 year old daughter from some guy who tried to snatch her in broad daylight in the middle of a Target store a few years ago. I wasn't armed then and he didn't keep at it when I got to her. But if I had been armed, I'd have shot him several times until I was sure that he had expired.

The cops never caught him, so he's still out there - likely going after other young girls.

Since a coroner will probably determine that the first eight shots were fatal, the worse he can be charged with is mutilating a corpse.

Far too many people show up solo and talk themselves into manslaughter charges. “Could you have just left?

Not with a perp with a gun in between me and the door.

They will charge the shooter, no doubt. The argument being that the robber was leaving and no longer a threat when the good guy shot him from behind. The final head shot will encourage the prosecutors to do so. Count on it.

Not under Texas law. A grand jury will certainly no bill.

Since this story will probably explode in the next few days, I'll just post this here:

Get self defense legal protection now. Doing it after something like this happens is too late.

I use Second Call Defense, but there are many others.

Some plans are as low as ten bucks per month.

Unfortunately his face and vehicle are pretty clear in the video. They’ll find him soon enough.
