Buddy of mine woke up on the kitchen floor of some Asian couples home after blacking out. He said they were poking him with a broom to wake him up and they were super nice and understanding. Cooked him breakfast and drove him home
a buddy and I passed out in the wrong hotel room in Destin during spring break in the late '90's. The door was open, no one was inside and we thought it was our room number I guess. when I woke up, him and I were both being drug by our feet and were dropped onto the highway
actually fairly nice treatment from the hotel room occupants as it could've been much worse

The homeowner doesn’t know that (technically, we don’t even know that right now). The law is based on the reasonable perception of the homeowner at the time of the action. Someone trying to gain entry into your home at 1:00 in the morning is going to always be reasonably perceived as threatening.

For some, it isn't practical to call the police every time you hear something outside.

1. Homeowner should not have gone outside, call police then wait inside. 1A if he attempts to gain entry - shoot.
If he gains entry through one of their windows and means harm, one of my children is dead before I can take action thanks to your brilliant plan
I absolutely am meeting him in the yard if I can
This is a house bit an apt. There are multiple entry points. Waiting inside while he has the opportunity to come in from anywhere is dumb

Can't wait to hear how this was fraternity related.
How do you get disoriented, leave a swimming pool, and end up somewhere else?
Alex, I'll take toxicology report for 1000

I said this in my head before reading at the bottom of the post the the kid is black... but "FRICK that kid." Behavior has consequences.

Same applies here
But but... the "kid" aka adult, is black. So, not his fault, dindu, whitey is a rayciss murderer. Case closed.
And they say white people are the privileged ones.

F that. If my family, my wife and kids are in that house... even if they're not... and I give the guy plenty of warning to get the hell off my property, fire a warning shot and he still advances, I'm shooting the F out of him. Period. I'm not waiting for him to break into my house, white, black, brown, yellow or purple. The same applies.

I’d still say you have a hell of a lot of options that don’t include shooting him.
Drunk kid in trunks? Give him a shout from the door or window. He keeps stumbling about and you call the cops and keep an eye on him.

That's assuming you know the kid is drunk. I never, ever want to be in that situation but late at night person acting erratically could also be explained by crazy, high, ect.
Also depends on whom is home. If it's just me I'm far, far more willing to take chances to not kill someone. If my gf/wife/kids are with me, people get far less warning if I truly feel threatened.

Counter: he’s a drunk dude in swim trunks. Keep an eye on him.
I doubt your kids would be super excited about a dead guy and dad on trial either. It’s not exactly threading a needle to find a middle point in this

Could be a zombie hopped up on bath salts trying to eat the brains of children…
But as mentioned, your girlfriend, wife or kids are all probably much better off 999 out of 1,000 times with you not shooting unless you think he has actively begun to breach the house.

Step inside, close the door, and continue to monitor while waiting for police?
Counter: you get it wrong, you go to prison and leave a single mom taking care of multiple kids while you are in a cell. Maybe your 8 year old gets to see a dead guy. Not super awesome for a family either?

If you call 911 and say you heard something outside they wont show up here at all.
You need to have something good to say

Going outside and telling him to leave is very reasonable. Killing the persons when they come at you after that is perfectly reasonable to let them meet their maker

“There is a man at my door” is a solid bit different than “I heard a spooky sound outside”
