You break into my house and I catch you, you're dead.
I fixed that for you.
Yes, I am going to assume you are armed and here to hurt my family.

No one would blame you.

This is only news because that family of the thug, thinks they are entitled to compensation somehow.

This is only news because that family of the thug, thought they were always entitled to whatever they could get their hands on, even if they stole from others, because some how everyone has harmed them.

Actually its way worse than that... It's news because the media thinks they will make money off it. And sadly they will.

When I worked in the legal field. Learned something fast. If you are defending yourself do it with purpose and at your full capabilities. In other words do not leave the perpetrator able to sue you for anything.
I've heard too many people say they would just shoot the person in the knee. That won't fly.

So she should have hunted down his whole family, and killed them all?
That seems like a strange thing to say... She did after all kill the guy she shot...

Often because people can't aim for s**t

The robber could turn around and sue you. There was an incident where a guy was breaking into someone's house. He fell down their stairs and got hurt, but sued the owners and won because the stairs weren't up to code.

injustice is rampant
-
That's why you hear people say to empty the whole magazine. If you are too precise it looks bad, but firing 10-15 rounds at least looks like you genuinely feared for your life.
-
In NY it's a fire at will if someone is breaking into your home and you have even the slightest fear for harm to you or your family.
But make certain that they are inside the house when they die, with a knife or some other weapon near by....
Also don't have the body leading away towards the exit... that never ends well....

So, let him sue me. At least I don't have to live with the fact that I took a human life for the rest of my life.
People always say, "In X situation, I would do this" Truth is, in the situation, you never do what you think you would.

First I don't think you would have a steady enough hand to shoot and hit a knee on purpose in that scenario. Second, how do you know he doesn't have a gun? You shoot him in the knee and then he kills you.
-
you can aim for his belly and maybe hit his large intestine? Oh, that might kill him too.
-
I imagine in that situation you won't be thinking about what part of the body you are aiming at, all you will do is aim at the largest part of them (center mass)
