What would you do is this home defense scenario
lets say you realize that someone is in your house and you take a defensive position at the top of your stairs. All of a sudden the bad guy appears and you you confront him. Lets say you tell him to freeze and not to move, (also he has no weapon visible, his hands are empty) Lets say that this whole time you are telling him not to move, and he never says a word, no matter what you say to him, and he all of a sundden starts walking up the stairs at you, but he SLOWLY walks up each step one a time coming towards you. he continues to come toward you and ignores any command of yours to stop, yet he has no visible weapon and is not necccesarily charging at you. I know this is not probably the most likely situation, but what would you guys do here? I know that i would say that i couldnt let the guy get close and it would seem that at some point firing could be the only option. Would you fire? but would the bad guy here legally be considered a threat?
