Tweeker? Be careful out there folks.
A fair trial, and an early noose. Spare the taxpayers the cost of a long drawn out incarceration.
That animal should be taken out back and put down. Pronto.
“... Lee was acting odd and belligerent...”
This is when you leave. Call the authorities from a safe distance.
It’s a crying shame the police didn’t dispatch him right there. Too bad he didn’t draw on the officers.
They say that drugs are a victimless crime. Really?
I know that this is not the full story, but still I weep for the real victim, the hero who tried to help someone in need! Prayers for him and his family and friends.
Glad drugs are HARMLESS, it’s time to FINALLY legalize them.
A Crystal Meth user is my educated guess.
What a tragic event. This criminal should never again see the light of day.
Or a head injury victim.
This won’t be popular, but sometimes guns are more trouble than they’re worth.
Quote:
“When deputies arrived at the scene, Lee reportedly refused to get out of the car.”
Too bad Deputy Marshal Raylan Givins wasn’t around.
Yeah, the darn thing just jumped up all by it self and shot the good Samaritan.
Good thing he had the tire iron properly constrained.
I had to use one to defend my place against 2 drunks. I got arrested and deferred adjudication for 10 years. It would’ve been better if I called the cops than to go outside and hold them off with a gun.
Nobody got hurt except me. I know what I’m talking about.
People that feel that way are defenseless when an aggressor starts shooting at them.
How do you defer adjudication?
You plea guilty to the mercy of the court and you’re not convicted unless you screw up your probation period.
I could’ve gone to trial, but faced 8 years in prison, so I took the safer way. The gestapo and the system are rigged. This is in Texas too, btw. Don’t use a gun, even on your own property, to defend yourself unless you plan on wishing for death instead.

I say this with all due respect, but is hero the proper word. The guy pulled over to help the guy, which is great, but we cheapen the word hero, in my opinion by throwing it around so loosely.
I have great sorrow for the good samaritan and his loved ones.
An armored car? They should have just shot the ******.
That's the problem, not the gun.
I don't know the circumstances of what happened to you but I thought Texas has a Castle Doctrine law and use of a weapon to defend your home even outside was within the law.
If you were facing 8 years, what was the charge?
Were you charged with ADW?
