I was wondering if anyone had information on PA laws about shooting burglars? I understand some states have a "make my day" law , saying that you can shoot an intruder without consequences? Do you know what PA's policy on this is?
 
i remember my dad telling me when he took the CCW permit course they pretty much said that you have to be threatened with a weapon (I.E. anything that can be used with force against you, deadly or not) or at least THINK you are being threatened with a weapon (I.E. "i saw a glint of light coming from his hand that i thought was a gun")

but this was all second hand, so take it with a grain of salt:)
