Re: Breaking and entering
if several guys break into your house intent on doing you harm, the situation does change somewhat.
they outnumber you giving rise to what is called a "disparity of force". also, they are actually in your house, not just on the porch beating on your door.
there are no cut-and-dried answers, but these are the kinds of nuances you have to understand.
ultimately, there is no way to say ahead of time with any guarantee when you will be found to have been justified and when you won't...which is one reason (not the only reason) it is best to try really, really hard to avoid needing to shoot someone.
