Keep telling yourself that. Why get a gun anyway? If they're not intent on killing then just let them take what they want and sit in your bedroom.

Tactically speaking racking a shotgun has some intimidation but it also can be a huge mistake in letting them know you are coming and where from whether they can see you or not

It ain't a fuckin warzone, it's some d-bag breaking in to steal your TV and pawn it for crack money.
Yeah, just let them come in and take what they want and go on as they please, right?
Oh, get a sling and practice. Alot. Not just standing still and shooting at fucking paper.
