17. Desperate people do desperate things

Part of the COVID-19 relief was to hold off on evictions. That is no longer the case.

We just had a case in Houston where a young man broke into a home during the early morning hours. "Professional" burglers break in during the day when people are away at work. The homeowner jumped up, grabbed his firearm, chased the intruder and shot him dead OUTSIDE his home.

Of course the gun nuts are saying the intruder "got what he deserved", but we'll see. The "castle doctrine" allows you to protect yourself, other people IN your home and your property. It doesn't allow you to shoot a FLEEING SUSPECT in the back! At the very least, badass homeowner will have to lawyer up and deal with the investigation. Consequences!
