You keep saying this, but I can tell you with all confidence that a homeowner in Colorado does NOT have to retreat or prove that the person was a threat before using lethal force. (So shooting a buglar in the back would be perfectly legal.)
If you need proof, feel free to google Colorado + make my day law.
So perhaps it is you who should do some research before making such pronouncements.
