You're choice, but I'm telling you the law doesn't automatically provide you with a free ride.
Just like hunting, you don't shoot at moving bushes, or shadows in your home. You must identify your target first. Failure to do so constitutes negligence on your part. Once you see the person, and they are unarmed and making no aggressive action towards them, then you cannot legally shoot them.
I think the disagreement here is I'm telling you what's right and wrong and you are telling me what you could get away with in court
