Agree with the general consensus... won't shoot to protect property only to protect life or prevent serious harm... my house is arranged in such a way as to make that feasible... I consider any attempt to get to my weapons collection in the "prevent harm" category.. house is arranged to prevent that.
So many things these days that you can get to tag personal property so it is trackable and traceable

And for those that worry about court costs get self defense insurance it isn't expensive I have Second Call .. shop around there are others the NRA just came out with a program
Best insurance you can get is to find an attorney specializing in self defense thru your local bar association and have an hour sit down face to face and have him explain the law and exactly what he needs you to do before during and after to give her ( or him) the best chance of defending your actions .. clubs or groups can set a group meeting with an attorney..
Look, you are going to want to tell the police a very limited amount of info if the worse happens, and you will want to tell them to talk to your attorney or for them to contact your attorney or that you want to talk to your attorney... for that to work.. you need to have an attorney in the first place. Time to find interview and select an attorney is now.. or if you know in advance when the worse will happen
at least a couple weeks before that date.. shouldn't cost much more than an hour or two of what a good therapist charges and will give you infinitely more peace of mind.. as well as inform all your preps. Usually the attorney's fee will also include putting the attorney on retainer .. but , if that is what you want, make sure you explicitly state that, if you feel good about the meeting.. if it isn't a good match shop around until you find one you trust with your life and freedom.
Proper prior planning prevents piss poor performance
