An abbreviation for "Bad Guy."
Not to be confused with a Bee Gee if you grew up in the disco era. :biggrinjester:

Would that not cover you in court?
Can you quote the statute that allows that was a CHL holder?

I thik you mean 'to prevent the other who is fleeing immediately after committing burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, or theft during the nighttime from escaping with the property' quoted in TPC 9.42(2)(B) http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/D ... m/PE.9.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

EDIT TO ADD: There are other stipulations that have to be met too
...and
(3) he reasonably believes that:(A) the land or property cannot be protected or recovered by any other means; or
(B) the use of force other than deadly force to protect or recover the land or property would expose the actor or another to a substantial risk of death or serious bodily injury.

Re: Can you shoot someone in the back that turns there back

When they turn their back to you they may just be REALLY loading their gun, racking the slide, etc to turn around an pop you. If they have have robbed you at gunpoint and turned their back to you, I would start trying to back away while drawing and if they turned or failed to move on away I would shoot. The main thing is try to get that distance between you when they drop their guard.
