re: Texas: Man Shoots Car Thief Dead…

Good news. Thank you.
Just an objective application of the statutes to the facts. It is what I do.
this guy looks to be pretty safe, because the statute in Texas is written that way. The guy up in New York was facing potential problems, because the New York statute was written quite differently.
personally, I hope that both of those New York situations work out in favor of the defendant. Morally, I think the defendant was right in both cases. That belief, however, does not change the crappy New York statute and the way it exposes good samaritans to potential prosecution.

OH! your vocabulary has slipped into crude. That a sign of a looser.

“The victim was my brother and there are two sides to every story,” Jose Garcia said, according to KENS 5. Garcia called the man who shot his brother a vigilante, adding that people should wait for the police.
Side one: Your brother stole a man's truck.
Side two: Your brother pulled a gun on the owner of the truck he stole while they were waiting for the police.
quote:
“Whether my brother was wrong or right, he had a gun pointed at him. I guess he took it upon himself to defend himself.”
Yes, the owner of the truck was defending himself.
quote:
“The guy who shot him is a vigilante, not a hero. A vehicle is not worth taking someone’s life, I don’t care what kind of car it is. You don’t take the law into your own hands,” Garcia added. “Now my mom, my family, we all have to suffer and just deal with it.”
Your brother would be out on bail, alive and well, stealing more trucks had he not pulled a gun on an armed man.

I thought for a minute the suspect may have looked like this:

- Owner attempts to hold thief until the police arrive to deal with the theft
- Thief pulls a gun on the owner of the vehicle, shoots owner
- Owner returns fire and ultimately shoots and kills thief
- Thief’s brother wrongly accuses owner of being a vigilante
- Thief pulls a gun on the owner of the vehicle, shoots owner
- Owner returns fire and ultimately shoots and kills thief
- Thief’s brother wrongly accuses owner of being a vigilante

The dead thief’s brother challenged the car owner’s supposed right to chase him down and kill him.
This person should be fingerprinted and deported by the end of the day. They are a psychotic predator plain and simple, who did not enter this country to work, but to predate those who do. The woman as well.

Do you have some evidence that either the thief OR his brother would have been subject to deportation? That they are Latino, in a city that is 66% Latino?

Send enough of them back and they’ll get the message.

That cockroach does not in any way represent the majority of Aggies! As a matter of fact he was despised over on Texags as well and was treated there like he is treated here!

If you steal my stuff, you are taking the stance that your life is worth less than my stuff.
I've seen signs, typically at independently owned commercial buildings (garages, etc) that say "Nothing in here is worth dying for."
Having said that, had this happened in a lot of states the owner would be screwed.

frick you Jose.
If your POS brother hadn't stolen somebody else's property he wouldn't be dead. It is HIS fault, and nobody else.
Whole family is probably a bunch of damned illegals on top of it.

Somehow he successfully gets a critical shot in. I would like to know how in the F that happens
Maybe the vehicle owner remembers being told, time and time again, do not to fire unless fired upon.
Frig that!!

Damn, that was easy.

I remember asking this question to a lawyer in Virginia, he blinked and said, whatever happens, just make sure the body is on your property.

You hurt anyone in my family, I will make you feel some pain. Its natural law, behaviorism.

I will give you some credit. At least you are adequately honest to admit that you reject the presumption of innocence and the constitutional entitlement to due process.
Kudos, I guess.

ALL of this could’ve been avoided had they not CHOSEN to steal a vehicle.
Sometimes it seems like the very basics get overlooked by this family and others.
