I understand this is Texas, where shooting 2 people in the back is considered self-defense. In our area we are worried about neighbors complaining about noise. People do not shoot at us, but if they complain about noise, we are doomed. The problem is that we normally rent part of a farm, and at that time is always alone, surrounded by fields, no neighbors. Then, they develop one of the fields, and houses start to pop up. You can inagine the rest of the story... In our current field we have houses kind of near, but no complaints so far. All it takes is a crazied complaining neighbor to shut us down.
I am sure this crazied farmer will pay for what he has done... He just was unlucky enough to hit a very expensive piece of hardware (well, "not hard enough ware"

I'm sorry but if you burglarize a house you risk getting yourself killed. I don't feel sorry for those criminals ONE BIT. They deserve what they got. One thing I do know, criminals will think twice before breaking in people's houses.
In Louisiana citizens actually have the right to shoot to kill if you try to carjack them. Another good law. If someone broke into my house and I'm home, they will be met with a 12ga shotgun blast in the face.
