I find it strange how you can know ahead of time the intentions and potentials of home invaders. What I call "strong Castle Doctrine" laws, in effect in many states, allow residents to use lethal force without warning, let along divining the intent of an intruder, because it can be presupposed in the US that someone invading an occupied dwelling is willing to kill anyone he come across, which happens all too often.

- Retra 12y agoThe phrase "someone invading an occupied dwelling is willing to kill anyone he come across, which happens all too often," seems to be ignoring the cases when it doesn't happen, or when someone dies when they were in fact unwilling will kill anyone.
