Would You Shoot 2 Men to Protect Your Neighbor's Property?

[scaeagles]

I would not hesitate to kill someone threatening a loved one or myself.

Property is not worth the life of the victim or the thief.

I would not go outside to confront someone if I and my family were inside.

That being said, any unwelcome intruder in my home without permission has completely unknown motives to me is therefore a mortal threat to me and my family. I would not hesitate to shoot someone in that circumstance.

Because of this, I think this man crossed the line. He was under no threat. I'd say under the circumstances even if he had been in the house and all he heard was a wiggling of the doorknob he might be justified (though that's a stretch) due to the situation.
