No, but they would have done something they shouldn't have, and to me. Therefore my natural response would just to attack them for doing it. As far as I'm concerned, all people who break into peoples houses lose their human rights the moment they break in. They shouldn't be doing it and deserve everything they get afterwards no matter how severe. When these people get attacked and survive, they complain and press charges. But they were the ones in the wrong in the first place! The people acting afterwards were doing it out of defense.

Why do you think that killing them is justified?

(Its easier to type using a hypothetical situation so bear with me
)
Because they were acting in self defense to defend themselves, their properties and their families. If the person never broke in in the first place then they wouldn't have ended up injured or dead. Invading someones personal space IMO is one of the worst things you can do. Attacking and injuring them is perfectly justified but murder is not always perfectly justified. I think it depends on the extent and other factors surrounding the situation on whether murder is acceptable.
