> It's not your property and shooting someone over a property issue is generally not going to win in court

Well if someone is breaking into your home - you should never shoot first, make your presence known, and be armed. Whether it be a firearm or a baseball bat, do not engage the home invader without having some sort of assurance. it's best to call the police first and then try to get an idea of what's going on.

under no circumstances should any of us just take a home invasion lightly. these are real legit crimes and I do not care how disenfranchised a person is. they hungry? - steal from a grocery store or do the lawful thing and go to a food shelf. Need drugs? steal from a fucking dept store, not a persons' home.
