I counted nine shots. I expect he will be sued for excessive force.
But then Jacob Blake in Kenosha (2020) was shot seven times by a cop,
and Dontre Hamilton shot 14 times by a cop in Milwaukee (2014) Those
cops weren't charged or sued so this guy shouldn't be either.

Houston Police want to speak to the man who shot the suspect, but he has not been charged with any crimes.

Cops never just want to talk. The hero is under absolutely no obligation to talk with the cops and he shouldn’t do so.

Any DA who has in mind to prosecute could find himself recalled

Texas law allows the armed citizen to “neutralize the threat.”
The first 8 shots could be justified by adrenaline, and the need to stop the threat of an armed criminal. BUT, moving around to the perp’s head to administer the Coup de grâce would be very difficult to justify. It’s best for all of the witnesses and the armed citizen to disappear and remain anonymous. JUSTICE SERVED!

After 8 shot perp is already dead. Shooting a dead body makes you guilty of nothing more than littering. Blood is messy .

This happened in Democrat Houston. So he will be arrested for murder. He might beat the charge. But it will cost him lots of time, money, and anguish.

My advice to this guy: Get outta Dodge. If you are a Mexican national, slip across the border and lay low.

Possibly an older combat veteran: we developed the habit of firing at an enemy who dropped several times to make sure that he wasn't going to be a continuing problem.

An ugly habit to civilians but a necessity in war.

Well, most ignorant people who never there with this ahole waving a gun around always have an opinion. Put the most antigun person there and they would be blasting away to save their lives more than what was done in the video. Never talk to the thugs that call themselves police, they only want to get u into the system so the jailers, lawyers, and cops make money!
