If they get the wrong house, there’s always the possibility of them being shot and killed with no recourse. Any lawyer worth their weight in potato chips could get charges lifted from someone who guns down unidentifiable armed intruders entering their home unexpectedly.
Right, but if they gun you down, there's not much that's likely to happen. They might have to get a job in a different city.
*Edit: Also, not every city has stand your ground laws. And there's nothing stopping them from shooting back and killing you. They're expecting a fight anyway. The lawyer might get a settlement for your family, but you'll still be dead. And your dog too; they love shooting dogs.
