I'm going to with nope. *unless you are shooting a thief who is stealing an already torn down statue out of your own vehicle*
Still, it's not a TERRIBLE image to plant in rioting vandals minds. Fuck with Texas, get shot. That's pretty straight to the point. I have ZERO plans of being anywhere near a mob of communists or fascists so I will not have to worry about leaning on a facebook post to stay out of prison. |

The problem I see is that it is neither your property nor property that the owner wants you to defend. If it was at night, then criminal mischief at night comes into play. UT owned the statues it moved, so that was a gimme.
Nw the cop was right to one point. Good luck getting a jury to convict the shooter in Texas. |

Seriously, is this up to and includes deadly force? Generally, you can only use enough force to stop the crime, and no more. Also, is this an affirmative defense? Do you need to prove the force was needed, or does the state need to prove deadly force wasn't needed? |

By my read, it wouldn't be legal as a statue doesn't strike me as land or tangible movable property. And even if it was, deadly force would only be permitted at night. I'm not a lawyer, though. Y'all feel free to be a test case on this one. Imma sit this one out. |

Yeah, you can protect your property "at night" with deadly force. Someone breaking into your car to steal change? Yep.

Deadly force could only be used at night. During the day I believe you could use force (i.e. punching, taser, pepper spray).
Obviously, this would only apply to Antifa types, you couldn't use force or deadly force on government workers acting on orders from the government to remove statues. |
