My point was that if the BG wanted to leave I would let him/her. I don't want to shoot anyone and I don't want to deal with being forced to do so. That said I would shoot someone without warning when I found them in my house so it really doesn't matter. I don't want to ever have to but I am not going to give anyone willing to break into my house any advantage at all. They want to run they can. I really don't care what the law states because it is a matter of life and death. Everything else is meaningless compared to the life of my family.
This is in response to SeamusTX post on March 22. This was posted April 6 and I think SeamusTX for this information.

Re: Consequences For Holding A Bad Guy
Do not restrain anyone. After he/she is disarmed then go to low ready then loudly and with authority ask him/her "Do not move! Stay where you are! I have called the cops, stay where you are!" Do not point the gun at him/her and don't say a word about shooting them if they move. Call 911 and keep the call going until a LEO gets there. If they go for a weapon then do what you must. Otherwise, bluff like you never bluffed before. If they leave let them go and make sure you know what they look like, are wearing and what color and make of car they left in. Just my opinion.
