Personally I'd rather deal with getting sued. Quite frankly if some asshole's breaking into my place & doesn't turn & run at the sight of a female coming at him with a sword & dagger in hand & swearing quite fluently at him in more then one language, he deserves what he gets.
That reminds me I need a new mace for next to my bed.

So... you spend much time looking for the loopholes in the "killing
people is a crime" thing? :)
I haven't tried it lately, but I suspect that if I were to kill someone
breaking in to my home, the Police would at least want to *talk* to me
about it. And while, based on the common wisdom, I might get away
with it, I think it's a sad reflection on things that the major reason I'd
be inclined to kill someone rather than take them alive is the fact
that there's less paperwork involved, and a much smaller chance of
getting sued.
