Now, there is a class of folks that get methed up and are total amateurs. They usually come into homes in small groups, heavily armed. For a homeowner to begin a gun battle is nuts: bullets don't discriminate children from adult. The likelihood a gunfight will favor the perp, in that situation, is high. Dirty Harry is a mythical figure.

That is the safest, most sane recourse. Confronting professionals that spend half their lives practicing violence isn't playing the odds. It's suicidal.
