Ah, no. The other guy's rights end where my property begins (at
least some of them):

Texas Penal Code 9.42 DEADLY FORCE TO PROTECT PROPERTY

A person is justified in using deadly force against another to
protect land or tangible, movable property:
(2) when and to the degree he reasonably believes the deadly force
is immediately necessary:
(A) to prevent the other's imminent commission of arson, burglary,
robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the nighttime, or criminal
mischief during the nighttime...

And Texas is one of the few ?the only? state to have such a liberal
policy, deadly force to protect property, In any case, the
happenings mentioned in the OP don't even come close to meeting those
criteria.


"Officer, when he came to my door, his fly was open (like it is now),
and his equipment was sticking out (like it is now), and he had this
hatchet in his hand, and he screamed 'I'm gonna kill you and **** your
dead eye-socket', and I, in fear of my life, discharged by weapon in
an effort to stop the attack."




'I'm gonna kill you and **** your dead eye-socket'

Man, that's better than Mike Tyson threatening to eat your children.
