Sharpshooter
Because, even if someone enters your home illegally, you do not have the right to do whatever you want to them (or their bodies). The last I time I checked rape, torture, forced detainment, and many other things were still illegal.
The "finish them off" garbage is what really ticks me off. I do agree that the guy took things too far and I don't think it was necessary for him to change guns and shoot them as many times as he did or wait to contact authorities about the situation, but if I was in his situation and someone breaks into my home while I'm in the basement and I shoot them from the top of the stairs, I'm not just going to let them suffer and slowly bleed to death. If the person is going to die anyway, you might as well end their pain rather than let it linger on. Like I said before though, this guy took things too far and more than likely has a few screws loose somewhere.

Why would one have to be facetious to make the statement?
"Cuius est solum, eius est usque ad coelum et ad inferos..."
I agree that the guy should have lawyered up, and probably not have 'finished them off.'
I would also find him 'not guilty' unless the State could provide some seriously compelling evidence as to his guilt. Ah, the powers of nullification.
