You wouldn't really shoot someone who was in your yard and not endangering your life in any way .... would you?

Assuming that someone would do such a thing, are you advocating the killing of someone who is spraying salt on someone's lawn, from a public street?

In Texas, one can use deadly force to stop someone from taking property or a life threatening situation, but not in your scenario.
