After the left his property, they were no longer a danger or threat to him, his family or property. At that point there wasn't any emminant danger and I don't see how firing on them after leaving his property was a legal act. More or less hunted them down and shot them. Can't say they didn't deserve it but legally, the homeowner is in the wrong here too. I can't say I wish for him to get off on any charges from this as if he broker the law, he should be punished just as the perps would be. There's lines in the sand on this stuff and if the line is crossed, ou gotta expect the consequences to be there.
Your lacking of understanding simply means you don't know or understand Texas law. There are circumstances in Texas law that allow the use of lethal force to protect property. This was one of them.
I find the notion of property line magic to be interesting. What makes you think the crime stopped at the property line such that the homeowner no longer had a right to stop the bad guys? What makes you think that just because the bad guys left the property that they were no longer a threat? Just what sort of magical property lines do y'all have up there in Maine?
