As long as a person "reasonably believes" they are protecting property even if it isn't their own property, they can shoot with abandonment. If you see someone spraying graffiti on a highway overpass, you can legally shoot and kill them.

The best part is that now we know what was fully predicted can actually happen, the state of Texas will never repeal this fucked up law.
