[RACER X]

arrested and charged doesn't mean he's going to prison, it means arrested and charged.

I understand that but barring jury nullification, it sounds like he's up shit creek.

I certainly did. He appears to be up shit creek because he disposed of the property showing that it was of insufficient value to invoke such a response.

AGREED, he's in trouble for tampering w/ evidence.

as for the shooting itself, it's justified in TX law.

I'm not so sure about that. What I was talking about, was how he threw away the beer that was stolen. If it wasn't worth retrieving, then it wasn't worth shooting someone over. That puts him up against a wall on a whole bunch of those statutes that you posted.

sure it's worth shooting somebody over. IMO

now is it cost effective,to shoot/kill somebody over beers, not really.

but as a retailer are you gonna sell "road rashed" beer. naw.
