Also,
Be prepared in case you ever have the misfortune of seeing an intruder down your barrel. Know your state laws and understand the circumstance that allow you to shoot...
Take NO more than three shots, anymore than that can be considered going PASS self defense into murder...
If you have to shoot then you better KILL, dead men tell no tales, when the cops come, you only want them documenting your side of the story. The guy on your living room floor should not be talking. It will make it much easier for you if you ever have to go to court.
Make sure the person is FACING you scream and give them a chance to leave peacefully. If the intruder approaches you then pull the trigger. Make sure the intruder is facing you and not running away to leave, the coroner can tell if you blasted the guy from behind or while he was on the ground...
If the guy charges you... Three shots one right after the other. Do not wait to check their pulse in between shots, it will make the cops think there was premeditation... The cops will walk right over to your neighbors house and ask them what they heard... You want your neighbors to tell them it was three fast shots.
The deceased has to have a weapon or you'll have a hard time proving your life was in danger.
Hey, maybe he went into your kitchen cabinet and took your kitchen knife and threatened you with it. If he is holding it, the cops will understand you had no choice.
Everyday houses are broken into. Right now as you read this, there is a criminal breaking into a home. If the homeowner is lucky, the intruder is just a robber looking for goods, they will take what they want and be on their way...
Some people are not so lucky and their homes are broken into by sick fucks who are looking to make it a really bad night for the women in the house...
