Well you asked him this question: "A warning shot fired at what or where?"

It's a valid question and I was being funny.

My response is higher quality than yours is.

I thought it was a valid answer. Not funny at all.

Thank U!

I have to think about this.

Just wondering if you've come up with an answer.
(PS: We firearms instructors always stress that you
know what is in the background when you shoot)

On the other hand, you might get away with it. Think of the glass as half full.

Better half full than empty? Empty being having no protection at all?

not while he was leaving with his back turned

He could have turned around.

A warning shot fired at what or where?

He fired a warning shot into the guy's back.

 

[ExpressLane]

not while he was leaving with his back turned

He was still inside of the restaurant

 

[ExpressLane]

Should have. He should have fired a warning shot.
He knew exactly what he was doing.

He did. Into the guy's back.

 

[ExpressLane]

I feel sorry for you.

He should rob a taco restaurant

 

[Earl]

So cops can shoot all robbers etc in the back without warning?

I have no problem with the location of the rounds.

He was still a clear and present danger to those inside and anyone entering.

There are consequences to armed robbery.

The shooter should be given a medal. Don't use a gun to rob innocents and you won't get shot.

Murder. The penalty for armed robbery is not death.

 

[Earl]

The penalty for armed robbery was and should be, death in this case.

 

[RB 60]

He fired a warning shot into the guy's back.

Probably used hollow points to avoid ricochet. But that's a given.

I disagree with this, the shooter should be charged with murder

I expect he will be. All the shots were good until the last execution shot. A few of them after the shooter was down are debatable, but the execution shot was clearly over the line.

Houston taqueria shooting: Mother of taqueria suspect killed by customer in self-defense speaks out

The patron's criminal defense attorney, Juan Guerra Jr., released a statement Monday.

"My Client who wishes to remain anonymous was dining with a friend at El Ranchito Taqueria and as it has been seen on video a robbery suspect entered the restaurant, pointed a weapon at my client and the other customers demanding money. In fear of his life and his friend’s life, my client acted to protect everyone in the restaurant. In Texas, a shooting is justified in self-defense, defense of others, and in defense of property. The customer has met with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office and Investigators with HPD homicide. He fully intends to continue cooperating with the ongoing investigation. When the investigation is complete, this case will be presented to a Grand Jury. We are confident that a Grand Jury will conclude that the shooting was justified under Texas Law. This event has been very traumatic, taking a human life is something he does not take lightly and will burden him for the rest of his life. For that reason, he wishes to remain anonymous. Due to the overwhelming coverage, we ask the media and the public to respect his privacy."
