My .02- I am too old to take another whipping. I no longer posses any of my former super powers - too many years and too much kryptonite. If someone twice my size and half may age is coming to "take me apart" and I cannot evade him, I am going to respond with deadly force, if I am able, and if he closes within striking distance and I believe he is going to strike (rather than just shoot his mouth off). I am not going to try and parse the law out in that split second. I got a CHL in order to defend my family and myself and I am going to defend myself and my family and will let the lawyers and DAs sort it out. That's their job. My job is to be able to provide for and protect my family. Like an old west Texas cop said to me once, "If there's a fight, I intend to be the one eating breakfast the next morning".

I've lived in Texas all my life and I am also puzzled by Texas law, as are most lawyers I know.
