Thanks for the list....but how does Texas rate on the "Castle" doctrine...?

Thanks in advance

Looks like Texas has the best. Love that word *attempting*. :)

States like Texas allow citizens protecting their homes, car, or place of business or employment to use force – including lethal force – when an intruder has unlawfully entered or is attempting to enter using force; is attempting to remove someone from the home, car, or workplace by force; or is attempting to commit a crime such as rape, murder, or robbery. An attempt to retreat is not required before a citizen is justified in using force against the invasive party in Texas.

I have no idea how credible or good the source is.
