The guy he shot pointed a rifle at him. If that doesn't constitute self defense then self defense no longer exists. Is he supposed to wait until the perp shoots him?
It's hard to believe this is happening in Texas, but Austin is a very liberal city where they would like to persecute anyone that is conservative.
He needs to request a change in venue. Any counties in Texas except Travis and Bexar counties they understand self defense and they are not out to persecute conservatives. |

I don't know the state of Texas's SYG law, but there seems to be a lot of questionable indictments there. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
