#4 It becomes a matter of 'what would you do?'
Now, as long as the Feds don't decide somebody's civil rights were violated, and the ambulance chaser that the hijacker's family hired gives up (Yes, they did), it's over.

#5 I've said many times, even in Harris county (Houston) the prosecutors have to be very careful because juries refuse to punish people for self defense. The last 4-5 shots this guy did are questionable honestly but this is Texas and in Texas, you play stupid games, you win the stupid prize - A Darwin Award. Houston is as blue as you find in Texas and even there you can see the prosecutor wasn't dumb enough to charge the guy, despite being bought and paid for by Soros.
