See the guy who wanted a custodial visit with his kids. The boyfriend came out armed while he was arguing with his ex-wife. A struggle ensued and the guy was killed by the boyfriend. No charges for the boyfriend.

It is an example where our laws are inadequate. The prudent reponse would be to disengage from the argument and retreat to the home. If prevented from doing so, then force would be justified.

In this case you break down someone's door, then you should expect to be met with lethal force.
