Q Quirk New member Oct 31, 2008 #2 Dude. No. Seriously. It's absolutely illegal to shoot at someone for any reason except life-or-death self-defense. Even if you don't intend to kill them. Well, in most states anyway. Not sure about Texas.

M MikeR Member Oct 31, 2008 #3 Let me ask you this. Would you be OK with the police shooting someone for breaking into a car? No of course you wouldn't. If your baby was asleep in the backseat you would be justified in training your weapon on him, but not executing him.
