That reads to me you can be sued for using deadly force.
Then this code says
CPRC § 83.001. CIVIL IMMUNITY. A defendant who uses force or deadly force that is justified under Chapter 9, Penal Code, is immune from civil liability for personal injury or death that results from the defendant's use of force or deadly force, as applicable
And this reads to me you cant be sued.
Can someone explain this ?
It's like how the Old Testament says thou shalt not eat bacon, but the New Testament says bacon is groovy so eat all you like.
Groovy? I am not a bible scholar, but must have missed that part.
