    German student Diren Dede killed in 'castle doctrine' case

    There is nothing in my garage worth killing someone over. Now if they come into the house, it will be a race to see who gets them first, me, the wife or the dog. This guy was baited. No, he didn't have to take the bait but he did.

    Is Texas the place to be or not????

    The last time I looked was about 9 yrs ago when some friends and I were looking at 500 acres where the land owner was charging $1,200 yr for anything in season. No facilities and we couldn't set up a dear camp.

    Long Range Shooting in Texas

    Yeah, that would have been perfect for me. Robert Lee is less than an hour from here, I should go take a look and see whats going on out there. ***EDIT*** Google saved me some drive time. The place has been vacant and up for sale since July 2010...

    Is Texas the place to be or not????

    Hehe, when I lived in the Atlanta, Ga area, I'd drive half way across Ga, through Al, Ms, La and half way across Tx; 1/3 of my drive time was in Tx. But we digress.

    Is Texas the place to be or not????
