Sorry but the only thing that punk was guilty of in this day and age was stupidity. More and more people are now carrying. Justice was served.

PS Really if ALL he was guilty of was stupidity, Guess me and alot of other people would be in the big house.

No reason to even present to the Grand Jury . Totally justifyable .

Texans are a breed apart . I lived in Houston in the early 80's . One night a bunch of us came out of a beer joint on Airline Drive where one of the couples had been fuedin' all night . Finally the fella (that lived just across the street from there) told her a bunch of stuff . He then proceeded to start across the street . The gal being embarrassed by his actions proceeded to pull a .44 Magnum out of her purse . I thought she was bluffing . She proceeded to yell at him "You sorry a$$ blonde headed Yankee mother****** , you best carry your a$$ a lot quicker than that." Every third word or so was punctuated by the report of another round headed in his direction . That boy was running , weaving , dodging , jumping as well as several other moves that I had never before seen . She then calmly put the pistol back and told her girlfriend "Mildred , let's go to the after hours joint." Just as calm as she could be . I jumped in my 4X4 and (as they say in Texas) carried my a$$ . I'm sure that if she went on trial she would have walked . After all , he WAS a Yankee .

It would have been really funny if she had actually hit him, and left him a slavering quadriplegic, and then they kissed and made up and she pushed his wheelchair happily ever after.

lol..and the sad thing is...thats a real life possibility!
