If I swing a bludgeon at a nighttime intruder in my bedroom and he dies, nobody will call it "an accident".
Least of all me.
I would prefer not to have to rely on by luck being bigger and stronger than my attacker though. I won't resort to a club until my firearms have been exhausted.
I agree with foot[3] though...I don't see why a convicted felon comitting yet another felony should be better protected by the law than the victim he has just denied the protection of the very same law.
