I'm also made deeply uncomfortable over how gun nuts seem to be just waiting for the opportunity to murder.

That being said, I don't agree with having to retreat and be really nice to the guy who broke into your home. I don't like anti-self defense laws at all. We're not talking about stealing Snickers from Walgreens. Home invasions are deeply traumatic events.

Even in communist countries you'd get your ass beat for breaking onto someone's home. I'm more than willing to shrug my shoulders and ask "what did you expect" if you break into a home and get your shit rocked.
