no clue. I'm probably reading too much into the use of the word permit instead of license.

Might be. It is the media after all. They get very few facts correct.

About 1\4 mile or less east of 75.
Greenville is just over 9/10 of a mile from 75, but there is no intersection with McDermott.

Probably irrelevant if he is convicted and goes to the slammer.

I don't know what else to say. I'm looking right at it on google maps. East McDermott Dr. ends and becomes East Main where Greenville switches between north and south. And there is a Valero gas station right there on the southeast corner where they pulled into according to the article.

I was just wondering if he got one from another state that doesn't cover de-escalation.
On a side note - not justifying the guys behavior, but who wants to bet the woman did a little more than bump her horn?

I see your point on the deescalation.

I won't take your bet on the woman.

I bet that guy's ears are still ringing. Setting off a .45 inside my car is just about the last thing I ever want to do, let alone four times.
No. Punishment is based mostly on what actually was done as it should be. If you go by intent, you will have to start guessing and imagining what you think the suspects intent was. There isn't anything beyond a reasonable doubt in that.
That doesn't make any sense to me. I don't have to guess or imagine about anything. He intended to send four .45 caliber bullets through the back window of a car. That was what was actually done. Whether one of those bullets hit her or not is irrelevant in my book with regard to the penalty he should face.

I can only imagine that she might have let a bird or two get away, but shooting through his windshield into her car? I can't imagine what it would take short of someone backing up into me multiple times or coming at me with a gun before I'd try that.

Then Google Maps is wrong, McDermott ends where it joins Main, 1/10 of a mile short of Greenville, there is no interssection of McDermott and Greenville.

I am sure the reporter looked at the map and not the police report.

It is not about facts... it is about selling ad space in news papers or online / commercial air time on TV and Radio.

Maybe the instructor of his CHL course, if any, has to be investigated. Or, maybe he should be on Laxapro.
