Re: TX: Houston homeowner shoots intruder in legs

WHEN does it become unlawful entry justifying deadly force under castle doctrine? When the individual ATTEMPTS to breach the door (window, chimney, ventilator, etc), or when the individual BREACHES the door (etc., etc.)?

Re: TX: Houston homeowner shoots intruder in legs

- Deputy Salgado carries two or more torniquets, apparently. Food for thought there.
- unless somebody had eyes on the intruder from a window, or a security cam, the homeowner was clearly kissing off Cooper Rule #4. That could be a problem in court...
- one hit on each leg in a target you can't see. How many rounds did the homeowner fire thru the door? full magazine horizontal 'stitch' line two feet above ground level?

Lot more info needed here to decide if this as a good example or a bad example of a defensive use of a firearm.....
