Houston never had tropical storm conditions. That said, resident shooting intruder is a common story in Houston. Hurricane Harvey had nothing to do with this.

There is a county in the Atlanta, Georgia area that one is REQUIRED to own a gun.

Even if all residents do not own guns, it would be extremely foolish to break into a home there.

A neighbor might come to someone's rescue and blow the PERP away.

Texas has a lot of gun owners...

East End? I'm guessing neither resident nor intruder were White Nationalists.

I believe in Texas protecting property is covered under justified shooting.
