the homeowner fired several shots through the door.

You don't shoot at what you can't see.

Do no doors in your area have windows in them or next to them?

That sounds like a very reasonable rule. In this case, I think the current condition of the door might tell us more information. If the door has no damage at all, probably the guy was only knocking. If the door is damaged, showing that the guy was trying to break his way in, the homeowner was justified.

If you sincerely don't think it's gonna get any prettier when the door comes down you do.

Sorry, there's not enough information in the story to determine whether the door was transparent or not.
