I'm on the side of the homeowner, however it is unfortunate that people died. It is always bad when people get to the point where they feel that crime is their only option. I do support the idea that people should be afraid to break into other peoples houses though. I have a CC permit and own a number of guns, mostly for recreational purposes. I am however prepared to fire on people who put my family at risk, though I would only use it as a last resort, and after firing a warning shot. I possibly wouldn't use it at all if it were only me threatened.
