Our local talk radio folks have been giving this a LOT of time on air...

Discussions ranging from erecting a statue, have a parade, a holoday in the name of this father who defended his daughter have been put on the table...

Personally, I am not a father, but if I witnessed a person, regardless of sex, creed, color of their skin, sexual orientation, religion, whatever...

That is a dead person who was in an upright position only a nanosecond before I get done with them...That is not a threat, that is a promise...

God and I will have a discussion on the issue and my actions later...

Texas Penal code does afford the use of deadly force to stop a person(s) from continuing their criminal act upon a minor (child)...

If this had happened in the small town in which I was raised, we would already have had a heroe’s parade for him.

As a former Texas CCW owner, that is dead wrong. You are permitted to use deadly force to prevent bodily harm to any person as long as you have a reasonable belief that that person wanted or requested your help.

Sorry, getting old. I see now that you said it DOES allow force.
