How Old Do You Have To Be Defend Yourself?

Or to defend your family? Teen shoots two men during Texas home invasion - CBS DFW

Three masked would-be bad guys broke into an occupied home. You could say that they suffered from a failure of the victim-selection process.

A 17-year-old was at a Channelview, Texas, residence when three armed men wearing masks forced their way into the home. The teen subsequently grabbed a shotgun and shot at the men, hitting and killing two of them, authorities said Saturday.

Another 17-year-old, a 12-year old and an adult woman were also in the home during the Friday night incident, said Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.

The 3rd guy ran like a rabbit. Cops have a description of the car, though it is not good.

Here is the LEAST surprising statistic I've seen in a long time.

Texas ranked No. 1 in gun ownership last year, according to data from the Rand Corporation. The state issued more than 1 million gun licenses in 2021, and 45.7% of adults say they live in homes with guns.

And I'm pretty sure you only need a "license" to carry concealed in Texas. Actually as of September of last year Texas is a Constitutional Carry state, though you can get a license to carry, and there are valid reasons to do so.

So the real question is, "Did these guys think they were in New Jersey?"

Self-defense is a human-right.
