It's not like the guy was even armed. Standard practise in most countries is to not kill people you find in your house, even if they appear to be stealing things.

Over here, if you believe they have the intention of harming you (As one could easily assume if they've broken into your house and have begun rummaging around in your things without a warrant), attacking them would be self-defense.

My stuff is more valuable to me than your life under those conditions.
And since I'm not psychic I can't determine if you're there for the china or my anal virginity.

So he should have chased the other one down and made sure he was dead, even if he was no longer in any danger?
I suppose you think we should go back to hanging thieves like the good old days? Or should '"Justice" simply be left in the hands of vigilantes?

However, I see in any case burglary is not acceptable and every household has the right to defend themselves, but if we become too paranoid about what counts as "reasonable force" then the innocent will be likely to feel powerless, but if we allow any use of force then not only it will deter crime, but people may be scared of visiting each other.
