Maye not. That's a pretty rural area and not as nutty as some places in the state.

I hope not, I live 15 miles in from that pretty rural area in our rural area in the same county. Shooting out tires, I don't know how that will go over.

He aimed at the tires and hit them, sounds like. Prosecutor would have his hands full convincing a grand jury the homeowner went too far.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Don't want to speak for others here, but I sure wouldn't vote to convict this Goodyear Gunnin' Grandpa. I asked a prosecutor about a hypothetical like this one time. He was not the head guy, but one of their more experienced litigators. He stated words to the effect of 'If shooting the tires was all you did, and the guy didn't drive off anyway and crash into somebody, we'd probably leave it alone. Especially if the bad guy was one of our frequent fliers.'
