I can't speak for KC, but watching him come out yelling at Chad to leave, it looks to me like he was hoping the gun would be enough to scare Chad off the property. It doesn't sound like that's illegal in Texas in and of itself, and personally I have no problem with someone displaying a gun while defending property.In other words, when KC came outside with his long gun, it was to kill the father. I suspected they wanted him to leave the property, forever.
One day the child will see the video and know the sad truth: no justice for his dad that died trying to see him (just as the Court provided in its Order).

If we look at what happened with Kyle Rittenhouse for example, he and his companions had rifles visible for people to see. The guns were being used as a deterrent against people who were trying to destroy property. WHAT'S VERY IMPORTANT WITH THAT EVENT is that Kyle Rittenhouse ONLY POINTED AND SHOT at people who were in the process of threatening him with deadly force. I know some people debate that use of force, but that's going to have to be an argument for another forum or a private conversation.
I personally think the place where KC and KR deviate is that KR shot at people who were trying to kill him. KC fired into his porch, which I think suggests he failed to understand the appropriate time and place to use deadly force. Whatever thoughts you have about the fatal shots themselves, that warning shot seals the deal for me.
