I'm very happy about this - my biggest fear was a lawsuit. Even if you do a righteous shooting, the goblin or his family can cost you a fortune in legal fees, lost work, aggravation, etc. That'll all change as of 9/1.
Oh, and what a change vs. my prior home state - the PDRNJ. Here in Texas I can own whatever I can legally afford - without nanny's permission (except full-autos, and that's Federal), I have a CHL, and now we're going to have a very strong presumption in favor of would-be victims who protect themselves and their families. NONE of those apply in the dark and fascist PDRNJ, piss be upon its corrupt, overbearing, arrogant and tyrannical politicians.
