Racking a shotgun isn't a solid way to prevent someone with ill intent in your home.

I don't give out my house key to anyone but I guess you do you.

If they fail to identify themselves they're probably not a harmless person who just happened to do a home invasion.

Property is not worth a human life.

My point exactly. They are the ones making that call by entering someone's home with ill intent.
