Was the shooter in reasonable fear of death or serious bodily harm?
I don't see it.
^^^this is the essential issue in use of deadly force. It did not appear that any innocent person was in imminent jeopardy...until the firearm was introduced into the situation. There did not appear to be enough disparity between the mutual combatants to justify use of a deadly weapon. The shooter left and returned w/ the weapon which may justify premeditation and a charge of capital murder.
There was lot of ignorance on display in the video and some on this thread. Texas differs from most jurisdictions in this area of the law so who knows?
