I dunno, I think I'm with Ring on this one. I mean, someone walks through your back yard and you're questioning whether or not you should have run out and shot him?
Even if we take it as granted that he was looking to rob your place, he didn't actually make any attempt to break in. The only thing this guy actually did was trespass in your back yard. Maybe I'm just a bleeding heart pinko librul, but that doesn't seem like a capital offence to me.
dlish: 9.8 m/s^2 would assume a perfect up/down trajectory, which isn't really possible under real world conditions. Further, even if it did go straight up and come straight down, the final velocity is going to depend on a few factors (the final height, the mass vs. surface area which will determine the terminal velocity, etc). Take all of that, add in the X axis to calculate the actual velocity of the bullet on impact and you will find that you get a final product of "fucking dangerous."
