That cuts no ice in my locality.

Nice hipster lingo, but you're wrong in principle as well. Physical or deadly force is just one kind, or would you disagree with the statement that the burglar, in your dwelling against your will, has forced his presence there upon you?

I'm not arguing the principle. I'm saying that the law, as it exists, isn't written to libertarian principles. If I shoot a unarmed burglar in my bedroom, I may feel morally justified, but John Law is gonna put me in jail.
