Would it have been ok to kill the father as well, for the crime of endangering his sons, who didn’t need to be pushing a lights-out truck on a dark country road?
I ask only for information.
Ill bite. Even if the father was intentionally endangering his children on that dark highway, then no, it would not be ok to kill him here in Brazoria County.
Might have been that the only protection on that road was the vehicle. The country roads here have a small shoulder on each side that fronts a ditch on each side.
