Can you shoot an unarmed intruder who refuses to leave?

No you can't, the intruder is now an undocumented resident, and has the right to be in your house and use your resources at your expense. If you do anything negative to them, you'll be accused of being mean and racist.

While you're in tunnel vision mode contemplating the philosophy of justice his girlfriend is already lifting your baby out of the crib.

Hypotheticals like this are why I sleep very little.

Well thought out response. I also imagine many keyboard commandos underestimate the toll this can take on anyone who isn't a complete sociopath. Even those who get "attaboys for a good shoot" after or have killed multiple people (for whatever reason) have problems and it can fundamentally change who you are. Sometimes it's not outwardly evident but demons can manifest themselves in various ways. Protecting your spirit-man is important and even righteous shoots can leave large swaths of devastation in their wake. Doesn't mean you should not protect yourself/families; you gotta do what you gotta do and just live with the fallout/repercussions sometimes but being aware of potential pitfalls is prudent.

True but the question is not about the morality of it, but the legality of it.
