Don't Bring a Machete to a Gunfight

Texans are still armed. Homeowner shoots machete-wielding suspect in Houston | CW39 Houston. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.

Detectives arrived and determined that the homeowner was justified in the shooting as the suspect attempted to enter his property with a weapon.

Why would you assume that a machete would give you an advantage in Houston, Texas? Isn't everyone armed in Houston?

The suspect was transported to a locale hospital and will be booked into the Harris County Jail for Aggravated Assault and Retaliation charges once he’s released.

They don't explain what the Retaliation charge is about.

Self-defense is a human right. Do I need to say anything about Texas?

  1. Retaliation? Makes me think he knows the guy. Must not know him really well or he would have known goin there and doing the FA part would likely end with the FO part. Or, maybe it was a road rage thing, followed the guy home?
