I realize all the different scenarios that can take place between perpetrator and victim, and there are no easy answers. Someone might want to only point a loaded gun in that situation, but with the adrenaline racing and the intense stress of the moment, you just don't know how it will turn out. I guess we are using very extreme examples where your only way out may be having a gun. But while my burglary experience was scary, it didn't warrant that kind of potentially violent force.
