Tall Shadow,
I will readily agree that almost any round fired in a house, even a .22lr would go through two pieces of drywall unless it happens to hit a stud. A 9mm round might go through 4+ pieces of drywall before stopping.
At the end of the day, I'll take my chances on killing somebody in the house, or the house next door to me, when I have a perp in the house that could possibly kill everybody in the house. At the end of the day, putting all the rounds into the perp will help prevent them from going anywhere else, but that is sometimes a little tough.
AT the end of the day, it is also better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6. Got that phrase from this chatboard. Plus, if a stranger is in my house without my permission, I am pretty sure that he isn't up to much good, and I am willing to bet that a jury would think the same.
