buddy of mine got charged with terroristic threats for saying that word for word. no lie
in pa i believe the law is that if you are in your house you do not have to retreat. castle doctorine, not perfect, but pretty good. if he kicks in your door you can throw lead at him, but for just walking up your drive way you cant do anything yet. unless he is armed.
in other words its the same as a situation anywhere else, except you are not required to retreat to justify lethal force. but thats just my understanding
