in florida, or atleast in Okaloosa county, if some one is on your property, who shouldn't be there, you can shoot them in the leg to immobilize them, so you can call the police... if they are in your home, you can kill them on the spot, call the police and ask them to come remove the body. Although, you get questioned a lot, but if some one is in your home trying to rob/kill/rape you/your family, i suppose the robber had no leg to stand on :chuckles:
