Looks cut and dry to me. Baddie breaks in with weapon. Baddie get popped. Oh well. Glad Harry home owner was a good shot. Family safe and all is well. Great ending to the story.

Good on him. If he'd done that in the UK though he'd be in prison for manslaughter by now, bloody stupid country.

I should imagine that under identical circumstances (armed intruder, women and children at risk of serious/life threatening harm and hopefully a licenced firearm certificate).

The Police would only 'go through the motions', knowing full well that a jury would probably reach a verdict of self defence.
