Yes, I did read it. I wasn't responding to what the homeowner did in this instance.
There were people in this thread saying that they would just blast away, without warning.
I said, hey...becareful, you can be a victim in hot water under the law
You are right, and I thought this was common knowledge,but apparently isn't the case in LA, it was certainly covered in my CC class. To be legally in the right it's as simple as
"Stop or I'll shoot!"

With that being said, you have an obligation to think correctly enough not to shoot some kid who's ball smashes through your window.
If you just whip it out, you can be charged with brandishing. If you fire warning shots you can be charged with discharging.
