We have the right to defend ourselves, but I've often thought that even for someone breaking into my house, shooting them might be a little extreme.. There are other ways to defend yourself - If you're in your house, you could get a knife or something from the kitchen or something to hit the intruder with, or if you're inclined, you can learn a martial art.
