i will tell you this, as a police officer, it doesnt matter what they are taking. if they are outside and far enough away that you have to use a deer rifle to shoot them. get ready to go to prison. i hate a thief, probably more than anyone else. they cause me alot of paper work. lol. but, a thief is still a human being, and they are still protected by laws and the constituion just like everyone else.
i agree that if someone was attempting to make entry into your residence, do what needs to be done. but, if they are outside the residence and have not put you or your family into any immidiate danger, get a good description. you can approach them with a firearm and hold them at gunpoint until the police gets their. if they run, let em run. if they fight or pull a gun, handle your buisness.
this is really a sticky topic for several reasons. 1) Texas laws are left open for interpretation in several places dealing with this 2) you never know what type of grand jury you are going to get. 3) and if indicted, you never know what type of jury your going to get
i would hate to know i went to prison for the rest of my life over a dog.
