    This Is Why

    You are correct in thinking Texas has the castle doctrine. Problem is 21st century ushered in the practice of scrutinizing every case to see if there's violation of civil rights. 90% of those shot are espoused to have been shot because they belonged to a federally protected group of one...

    This Is Why

    Police officers should give people better information and advice than those two did. It isn't a matter of monetary or sentimental worth in deciding whether to kill someone for stealing. Shooter will be charged with secound degree murder at best and that's what they should have made clear. It...

    This Is Why

    I agree with Old and tired when he said trespassers seeing camera flash is a good thing. All but the most determined will retreat then go elsewhere. Again as Old'n tired says, if they do push foward and steal or kill, the resalution is so poor it isn't much help to law enforcement. Drones...

    12 V 30 amp supply from L6060 to sander?

    We don't get much experience with snow plows in Texas but we have abundance of dump, tilt and liftgate trailers that pull high amps. From the standpoint of cost, maintenance and reliability, a dedicated battery wins. The idea arrangement has battery receiving charge through 7 pin with dpdt...
