In Texas there is the law known as the Castle Doctrine. One can use lethal means to defend their home and property, or as in the case of a man some years ago shortly after the bill passed into law, a neighbor's home and property.
There was no racism in this case. Nor was there in the courtroom as we saw there was a black judge, and the jury had but two white Texas citizens seated, so there was no racial special treatment as pertained to the defendant.
Unfortunately, race baiting is always a thing in cases like this. And sadder still is the new racist pejorative , 'white privilege'. What a tragedy in all the lives destroyed in the pull of a trigger only to inspire deeper divisions between the people who read of what so deeply affects others for the rest of their lives.
God have mercy.
