If they are armed, yes or in self defense.(aka they have to actually attack her or be armed) |
|
|
I think for MN laws [I am from there] that it would not be illegal but I could be wrong |
|
|
We don't have a self defense law so she could be taken in for murder |

@obby

they have to be a threat
no you cannot fire upon another human if they enter your home and do nothing
yes you can open fire if the said human is a threat aka attacking you |

In Louisiana it is 100% legal to kill someone who has broken into your home no matter what

"Everyone in Minnesota is too much of a bird to do anything, so don't worry about it."
There's been recent reports of someone driving around in a car, getting out and killing people on the sidewalk
And also, my mom's really expensive Mercedes was stolen 2 years ago straight out of out garage, they broke right in
