I grew up in the boonies of Western MA / Southern VT, always being around guns. Its much more likely here that a robber is trying to steal your TV (which VERY RARELY happens)...and if thats the case, they are at a severe disadvantage holding a TV when I physically restrain them or crack them over the head with a baseball bat. My only point in all this, is if somebody holding a tv...a petty theif hears a shotgun cock, they're goona drop the tv and run. period. They'll be out of my house, which I can then secure again and keep my family safe.
