I agree but having someone shout "Fuck you" to you while dining with your family is not against the law. Originally Posted by WTF

Generally speaking those provisions are consistent with the Model Penal Code, which is adopted by most jurisdictions in this country ....
... when these hoodlums start getting "popped" for trespassing and vandalism the Liberals can start whining about "gun control" and then the WORLD will KNOW why they want "gun control"!
If I'm sitting at my dinner table and can hear a stranger yell "Fuck You" it is "disturbing my peace" aka "disorderly conduct" and most likely they are TRESPASSING on my RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY so that I could hear them inside my residence.
It was reported that this hooligans pounded on Tucker's front door so hard it was CRACKED ... that's is Criminal Mischief ... AND IT WAS AT NIGHT.
So, again from Texas, but generally consistent with the Model Penal Code adopted by most states:
Sec. 9.42. DEADLY FORCE TO PROTECT PROPERTY.
A person is justified in using deadly force against another to protect land or tangible, movable property:
(1) if he would be justified in using force against the other under Section 9.41; and
(2) when and to the degree he reasonably believes the deadly force is immediately necessary:
(A) to prevent the other’s imminent commission of arson, burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the nighttime, or criminal mischief during the nighttime; or
(B) to prevent the other who is fleeing immediately after committing burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, or theft during the nighttime from escaping with the property; and
(3) he reasonably believes that:
(A) the land or property cannot be protected or recovered by any other means; or
(B) the use of force other than deadly force to protect or recover the land or property would expose the actor or another to a substantial risk of death or serious bodily injury.
“I CALLED MY WIFE,” CARLSON TOLD THE WASHINGTON POST IN A PHONE INTERVIEW. “SHE HAD BEEN IN THE KITCHEN ALONE GETTING READY TO GO TO DINNER AND SHE HEARD POUNDING ON THE FRONT DOOR AND SCREAMING. … SOMEONE STARTED THROWING HIMSELF AGAINST THE FRONT DOOR AND ACTUALLY CRACKED THE FRONT DOOR.”
