I can't believe that a law like this even needs to be put into place, especially in Texas. But it basically states if you feel threatened, you have the right to shoot first without having to retreat. What bothers me is that it is still theoretically possible for you to shoot someone legally, and then be arrested, searched, and then have the charges dropped eventually when it's found you were in the legal right. Now you have to deal with attorney fees, putting your things back after the police have confiscated them and more.
But this is Texas. Everyone has a gun. There shouldn't need to be a second thought on if someone shoots another legally. Yes, there are going to be cases where the question of legality comes into play, but once it's found out that you did it right, then you should be free to go, attorney fee's waived, and your guns returned to you if they were confiscated right away.
You notice we don't have as much trouble anymore on airlines? People know that there's an armed air marshall on the flight somewhere. Criminals don't like hard targets. They often will think twice if they know that someone in the room has a gun and will shoot back.
