You'd love Somalia. Fortunately we live in a nation of laws, laws that prevent people from shooting people who pose no risk to life
Herp derp, I said I believe it is against the law. Tone down the froth please.

But the prosecution wouldn't want me to be a deciding member of the jury in your trial. And the other jurors would get a crash course in "jury nullification" by yours truly.

I have about a 20' lot line with my next door neighbors. If I kill someone in his driveway hauling away his flat screen, does that mean that I am "roaming the neighborhood"?

If you're going to lawyer up why admit you fired the gun. Ask for an attorney first. I have told my wife, 'say nothing at all, no matter how friendly they seem'. That said the old man should have been roaming the street with a gun drawn... You become a Target for another rambo vigilante that way.

Your way sounds good too. The advice I stated was given to me by a Harris County Constable. Either way I figure you have CYA.

Or in Texas, also shoot people to protect your property, or a neighbor's property.

It's "THE LAW!".
