"The two men knew each other" according to the linked article, correct.
In that sense, and until information becomes public that would challenge it, it is possible for the guy that showed up with a gun to be thought of as an "uninvited house visitor". The article does not provide any information that claims that the guy was "an intruder" or intending on breaking into the home (it does appear that the one neighbor quoted thought it was someone intent on robbing the home, but that is not stated as a fact in the actual story). I personally think the fact that the two knew each other should have been stated earlier in the article, which would have made the "uninvited house visitor" comment make more sense. IMO, that's a mistake that the news outlet made themselves that just invited such comments as baggers OP view. It's of their own making.
Other than that, your #2 - who cares? Show up with a gun at my house, you take your chances, your #3 - that tends to happen when a homeowner sees someone with a gun and is unarmed himself and decides to try to disarm him, your #4 - In Texas, if it's on your property, it's on your property - inside the house or not.
The last paragraph in your reply is totally from your own imagination, unless you have another source with more information you didn't share via a link. Personally, I found it amusing reading it, however, in a way, it actually feeds into baggers OP of some trying to soft-peddle a very serious incident and downplaying the truth. |
