re: If someone breaks into your home, I think you have a right to kill them without punishment

I agree. A lot of states up north have a duty to retreat rule where if someone is trying to kill you, you literally have to try to run away before you can meet them with deadly force. It's laughable.

I will never live in a state that requires me to flee my own home if it's getting broken into.

Did you read that on Facebook? I believe there is only one state up north, that you have the duty to retreat. Now many states say in public you have the duty to retreat, but in one's own home.....fire away.

In their own homes? How far do you have to retreat before you can start shooting? What happens if I live in a tiny efficiency apt?

What state has the duty to retreat from your own house? This thread is "thinking" what the law actually provides in some form in every state.

Wikipedia tells me it's only Vermont and Washington, DC.
Stand your ground law

Except that it isn't true. Vermont and DC only.
