So NOW you're willing to investigate to find out if they are an "intruder" before you kill them. Well, okay then.

Not in my home.
My doors stay locked so I don't have to hurt anybody's feelings.

Our home is our Castle, It is secured with locks and alarms. If anyone that is not welcome enters, they will be met with deadly force..At that point their is no discussion, just resolve. I will always protect those I love and care about.
Really? It's happened to me three times in the last year. One was the cable guy, another was Terminix and the third was a rough looking 20 something that I walked in on when there was no other vehicle in the driveway and no one else home.
The first two saw my weapon get stopped in mid draw (uniforms) and the third was looking down a barrel until he told me the name of the contractor he worked for that had run out to grab some lunch while leaving him there to continue working. Guess I should have just killed that last one. Maybe the first two, too.
Time to Move!
No need to. My wife or daughter had let the cable and Terminix guys in while I was in my office and the third guy was there to do a job that the contractor, that I know and trust (He had a key), had told him to do.

I tend to know when I hire out services and have people coming over. How in the world are these people getting in your home?!?! 
I'm glad you didn't shoot the kid. So is he. I've lived in this particular home over 17 years and have NEVER had an unexpected person in my home all those times. (Closest was the exterminator in the back yard. He's still alive and I never pointed a gun at him because shockingly, I immediately recognized what he was doing.) Three times in the last year?!?!
You're on a heck of a run man! 
So you have never walked into your home and come face to face with someone you don't know and then a find out that they were invited in?
No
