Did Tennessee Just One-Up Texas in Deadly Force Law?  @ArmedAttorneys
Uploaded April 2026 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago
Armed Attorneys Emily Taylor and Leslie Cross discuss Tennessee’s new deadly force bill and whether it goes further than Texas when it comes to protecting property. Could Tennessee become the new gold standard for property defense laws — or is Texas still king when it comes to stopping thieves? We break down what Tennessee’s SB1847 actually says, how it compares to Texas Penal Code 9.42, and what gun owners need to know before assuming they can legally “shoot a thief.”
Tennessee lawmakers recently moved fast on SB1847 — passing through the Senate on 4/21 and the House on 4/23. If signed by Governor Bill Lee, the law is expected to go into effect on July 1st.
