States like TX and FL are no longer the happy hunting grounds for criminals that they used to be before shall issue CCW laws were passed.

CCW laws do work to reduce serious crimes however the opponents of such laws pull out all stops to generate a fear in all that CCW will only create a scenario of rampant crime.

I wonder what this defender of his property would be doing right now if he would have politely asked the perp to hang on for about 45 minutes while he dialed 911 and awaited the arrival of a LEO?

The homeowner had his own gun. Investigators say he shot and killed the suspect.

Joe Turd was counting on Joe Citizen to be unarmed and scared. Joe Turd was dead wrong.

I look forward to the day when it doesn't even have to be mentioned that charges will not be filed against the homeowner, because he acted in self-defense.I look forward to the day when everyone assumes that. I always love it when a bad guy takes a dirt nap. Nice shootin'!

You would think criminals in TX would know they're going to lose a confrontation with an armed citizen. I'm glad this man was one of them and was able to protect himself.
