I mean Texas is a “Stand Your Ground” state, if they can prove that Metcalf put hands on him first, then they can win. I think Stand Your Ground laws are stupid, and basically legalize manslaughter, but that’s the bed the State of Texas has made, and they just might have to lie in it.

Yes but to my knowledge, legality of possession of the weapon isn’t (necessarily) an element of that defense.
