The Deacon would be in jail if he did this in my town. Can't shoot at someone who poses no threat to you, as a fleeing robber does not.

I think Texas allows you to shoot a robber running off with your property. Maybe Alabama is the same way.

Here in the rural area of Mobile (Ala) County, a man had been repeatedly burglarized and awoke one evening when the burglar was already in his vehicle leaving...the homeowner put a 30-30 round through the back window of the perps vehicle hitting him in the head killing him instantly. The DA prosecuted...the jury acquitted.
