Not exactly the same situation, though. In your case you are facing an armed intruder - and frankly in that case my bet would be on him winning not you - but let's say you get lucky and manage to kill him. It is a survival situation and in most states you wouldn't even be charged for defending yourself.

Quite funny, some criminals are horrible at aim. I love hearing stories about how a wild gun man shot 40 some odd bullets, and only 2 bullets actually hit anyone.
Let's just say I'll die trying to kill him then Wink

It is mere vindictiveness.

Keeping a prisoner incarcerated is not free. Prisoners are taking away millions of dollars from the governments.

We can't let murderers free out on the streets.
We shouldn't have to pay for criminals to live.
