Re: Disparity of Force: Four v three+.380

Texas also protects certain assets of individuals from seizure, including the person's homestead, means of livelihood such as tools, two horses, mules, or donkeys, and household pets. It isn't worth suing a person who does not have significant other assets.

That said, I think the notion that "you can't be sued" is dangerous. You can be sued, and the situation is full of legal gray areas and the possibility of getting a jury with the collective IQ of a rack of pool balls.

Hey, I resent that. I like pool balls.
