Texas Dad "Happened" to Be Armed

What are the chances that a Texan happens to armed? Texas dad shoots carjackers to save infant children, wife | The Post Millennial

They suffered a failure of the victim-selection process.

A Texas father shot two teenage would-be robbers Sunday night after the pair tried to carjack his SUV with his wife and two infant children inside.

Local news reports that "The father, who happened to be armed, fired several rounds through a rear window and hit both suspects, according to deputies. His wife then continued driving to get away."

Both would-be bad-guys were struck with gunfire. The NY Post story on this incident lists them both in stable condition. (They jumped into a car and were dropped off at a hospital.)

The father is not facing charges, because unlike Manhattan's DA Alvin Bragg, the system in Texas doesn't penalize people for defending themselves. (Hat tip to Gates of Vienna.)

Self-defense is a human-right, and in Texas it is your legal right. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.
