Not that people with guns trying to break into a house are necessarily very smart (both burglars and Nazis), but what's the plan here? You hit the homeowner and then you just have a shot guy on the other side of a still locked door. You gotta be really dedicated to robbing that particular house this particular night to jump to do that.
I'm guessing the order of events is off. Shooting at thugs trying to break into your home and those thugs shooting at someone shooting at them makes perfect sense.
Eh, if it's a standard door in america, a few kicks will stave it in. So they would have open access to the house in just a moment after they ensure there is one less resistor on the inside.
This is Texas we're talking about. There, people shoot at each other just to say hello some times 🤷
Unless you're responsible for protecting children during an active shooter situation in a school. In that case, you let the active shooter say hello to everyone while you piss yourself.
Maybe they were trying to shoot the lock. Akin to smashing car windows and dragging people out, as they've done in LA.
