British law does allow people to defend their homes, it just doesn't do it that well at this moment in time. Government advice has been to lock yourself away and call the police, but it's not the law.
Why do you think that shooting people is the only recourse of action when your home is entered illegially? Does every intruder in America stop and think that the household they're about to burgal has a gun, and does that even stop them half the time anyway? Do those houses with guns advertise that factor?
