If there was shooting outside my house, my dog came inside and died from a bullet wound and then a lone LEO showed up at my back door to threaten me and call me names, she’d be a goner even if I had to take a hit to make it happen. People like her don’t deserve to breath air.
I’m thinking along the same lines. Kill my dog on my property, I will opt to use the Texas Law to defend my “Property” through the use of lethal force. And yes, I do value my animals more than people like that.
