Lets not forget, you leave them alive and they can sue you for damages, injur them, physically or mentally, and you can be forced to sell your home to pay compensation to some scum burglar. Fuck that, kill them, strip them, carve “i like sex with little boys” into their chest and say “sorry guv, he was a psycho”
Or similar. There was a notable case in cheshire about 3 years ago where a burglar fell through a skylight onto a cutting board where knives had been left out. The combination of glass and knife wounds coupled with the fall left the man disabled and “unable to look for work” and he was able to sue the owner for damages and medical costs, all despite the fact he was traversing the property with the intent of breaking into her neighbours house!
It happens!
