Regardless of what the situation is, if there is an uninvited anything in my house that poses any threat, it's going to take some hot lead on real quick. ..
Yep, I'm aware. Out on the front porch, different story. In the house, goner without hesitation. I will never second guess my actions in that scenario. My family's lives are far more important than the intruder's that made a bad decision.BUT, the OP's original hypothetical indicated that the burglar wasn't a threat at that moment. The dog was handling him for you. It's only if the burglar beats the dog that the burglar will then become a threat to you.
That scenario would technically be a big problem to invoking self-defense laws for deadly force out on the street, but since we're talking about a home, we have a more flexible set of rules.
