[Dead Corpse]

Makes sense for the 9th. A burgler kills a homeowner while in the homeowners house. Delclares self-defense sense the homeowner had his gun drawn and pointed at him.

Just when I thought you were making progress...

A burglar is already initiating force against the homeowner by being in his house without permission. The homeowner would have every right to kill the burglar. The burglar adding the offense of shooting the homeowner on top of his initial offense is no defense.

By definition, a burglar has initiated no force against the homeowner. Check your law.

It doesn't help your argument when you use "always". Too easy to find exceptions.
