I read this a bit different as a farm owner. This guy might have been a hot head, very true, but he confronted trespassers on his property illegaly. It really does not make any difference what they were doing, in that aspect, they were on the man's property unlawfuly. I imagine he ordered them off the place and they refused to go, otherwise there would be no gun fight.

Good post.
We had a problem with hunters trespassing on one of our properties. That place was and still is posted. A hunting club had a huge adjacent place leased and they tramped all over mine and the neighbors property. I ran an OK city lawyer off our place and called the sheriff on an cop who refused to leave. One guy insisted on cutting my fences and driving his four wheeler all over the place. Called the sheriff and the guy was arrested because of a want for a violent crime in TX.
It all came to an end when a grass fire on the neighbors property torched the new Dodge diesel pickup that trespassers had parked on that place: No more trespassing problems.
