My bill will do, if passed, would require a homeowner to exhaust the potential of safely retreating into their habitation before using deadly force in defense of themselves or their property.
I filed this bill because the Castle Doctrine, as it currently exhibits, emboldens, I don't know where her other thing is.
What I was going to say is, before I read Greg Abbott's response, I did read this bill myself.
And what it does is it seeks to take away the right to stand your ground in your own property and use deadly force when people are breaking in, basically to exhaust all resources.
I've been a victim of somebody who's broken into my house.
I was in the middle of a home invasion.
Are you from South Africa?
Maybe it was in South Africa.
jaco booyens ▲ ● ▼
Well, in South Africa, this is what happened.
They toppled our statues.
They changed the history.
They changed the flag.
They changed the national anthem.
Some things needed to change because of apartheid.
But you know what they did next?
The law in South Africa today, you cannot shoot a guy in your own house.
He has to fire his firearm first.
There are so many cases of people who defended themselves because they changed this very South African law, British law and U.S. law is very similar.
This literally is already in effect in South Africa.
It has been for over a decade, right?
You cannot defend yourself in your own home until violent force was used.
It does not work.
This is catastrophic.
This is anti-American.
This is against who we are, right?
But why?
They can't take the Second Amendment by just going straight after the Second Amendment, Elijah.
They can't.
They've tried.
They've tried really hard.
You know, the buyback program and beta and they've tested.
They can't.
So they're going to come around the corner with all these kind of things, restricting your access, restricting your rights.
Retreat in your own home.
Go into your safe room.
Let them take the kitchen.
Don't fight back.
This is what they're saying in South Africa.
Let them take the televisions.
Let them just retreat, retreat, retreat.
They're constantly asking the conservatives in this country to retreat.
Life in the womb doesn't add value.
You should retreat.
You know, marriage is not a matter.
You should retreat.
There's not two genders.
Retreat.
They're constantly asking us within the realm of the law to retreat.
And we're saying, no more retreat.
No more retreat.
Line in the sand.
Okay, this is war.
elijah schaffer ▲ ● ▼
This is war.
And I want to declare, we will declare war in a moment here because I want to say this.
Greg Abbott, this is where, even though I don't believe we are a nation that needs strong leaders to encourage us, I think we are a bottom-up society.
I think that we were built to where strong individuals create this upward momentum to as we build families and societies and cities and states.
That's what we as Americans stand for.
That's why we're different than a lot of countries, because we don't look for a strong governor to encourage us to be strong.
We become the next generation.
jaco booyens ▲ ● ▼
Not a dictatorship.
unidentified
Right.
elijah schaffer ▲ ● ▼
But Abbott said this.
I'm glad Abbott, after getting it wrong in the beginning, which I give every man grace to get things wrong.
And I did oppose his position on coronavirus initially, though he has woken up and he said, let me be clear.
This is where we need real men in our country that say these kinds of words, not fancy talk and weird political language.
Let me be clear.
The Castle Doctrine, this idea of a man or a woman having the right to defend themselves and the property that they own in this country, and I'm clarifying what that means, to stand their ground and to defend the things not only that they own, but on their liberties and their potential safety will not be reduced, period.
jaco booyens ▲ ● ▼
That's it.
elijah schaffer ▲ ● ▼
We won't force Texas homeowners to retreat, especially with the crazy defund the police ideas.
Homeowners need to protect themselves now more than ever.
We will protect Second Amendment rights.
End of story.
That is the spirit of Texas from the attorney general to the governor.
Why is this suddenly changing from the fact that we were shut down, we had masks and we were like just a part of the system.
And now all of a sudden, Texas is like, let's wage a war.
Why now?
jaco booyens ▲ ● ▼
Because when you back a dog into a corner, at some point, the dog is going to return to its natural condition, what it was made to do.
It's going to defend itself.
And our default position in Texas, which is still why we're a state where our flag flies the same height as the U.S. flag, our default position in Texas is we stand.
That's our default.
We've drifted from that at times, and now we're backed into a corner here.
And what you're seeing now is people going, finally, enough is enough.
Try to play nice, try to be cordial, try to extend the grace and the mercy that I have to according to the word that I believe.
