but lets say you let them go and on the way out they decide you should die cuz you saw them, who is to say that wouldnt have happened? you can never tell what a criminal is gonna do, they could be messed up in the head or have other motives for why they are robbing you which puts them in a different state of mind than you. in your mind you may want to give them the benefit of the doubt that they are there just for the TV and not to harm you, but in their mind they may just shoot without reason cuz they are screwed up in the head or on something. i say if you come into my home with a gun you should be willing to take the chance of being shot your self. if your going to play the game, you should be willing to suffer the consequences, end of story.
