I think there’s a difference between simple trespass and breaking an entering/theft.
they weren't on his property or breaking into his home.

let's see the guy in Houston when this law was first implemented, saw two guys breaking into his neighbor's house in broad daylight, and he blasted their ass, no chargers.
Both were committing felonies when they were shot. If I remember correctly he was instructed to watch his neighbors property. And he was an elderly combat vet with health issues. Politically a nightmare to try this case in Texas
The guy in this case was not. Yelling is not a felony despite what Bolshevik beta male chipmunk slayer says.
Why would the shooter have a loaded unattended carbine right by the front door with a child in the house? It’s almost if it was premeditated
I keep several loaded guns in the house my kids knew better than to mess with them, when they were young and my 9 yr old grandson also knows not to.
