Getting out of the car could have had the consequences of him getting shot by Horn, who could have mistaken the UC as a getaway driver. Or possibly the UC getting shot or detained by unis who also could have mistaken him for one of the perps and the perps were getting away...
just a thought.
But in any instance, the UC did what he was supposed to do IMO

Exactly and I agree with your other posts, too.
Horn was a proud gun toting Texan who was looking forward to shooting someone, regardless of anything else. The "regardless of anything else" is what makes this scary because individual citizens don't have the right to take the law into their own hands and PLACE THEMSELVES in danger for the helluvit. He killed people over
property--there is no self-defense when you go outside with a gun and claim you felt threatened when one of the dudes came toward you. Horn treated this like he was playing a video game.
There are laws that state what home owners can and can not do to burglars. These may not exist in Texas and that makes Texas a perfect example of some of what anti-gun people are talking about.
(Horn might be crazy, too, so this could support mental health screening for gun owners.)
