Why is that so difficult though? People are able to stay calm and collected in a variety of situations. But this is somehow impossible to figure out? If you have the wherewithal to get your gun out of its safe, confront the intruder, you’re probably okay to assess the situation. Literally from far away, you could shout “I have a gun” or “I called the police”. How many intruders do you think would continue to rummage through looking for stuff to steal?
I guess the question is, do you want them out of your house or do you want revenge?
