I know I shouldn't 'feed the trolls,' but I'll toss a handful in, anyway...
First off, if someone breaks into my home, they are not breaking in to ask the time or compliment me on my decorating.
By breaking into my home they are clearly demonstrating to me the intent to do ill.
If I or my family are in the home when they break into it I cannot rationally assume they do not intend injury to me and mine.
As soon as they actually manage to get in without invitation, my objective will be to STOP them from proceeding any further as I will 'be in fear for my life.'
I am not protecting my possessions, I am protecting life and limb from an uninvited, unwanted intruder.
By breaking in they have shown themselves to be a danger.
Game over.
