why not just surrender everything?
if somebody broke into my place, i'd call the cops and then just sit and wait for them. there is nothing i would defend with my life, except for another human being. i think the chances are slim to none that a burglar would try to harm you if you stayed out of their way.

This could go in another thread, but this is one thing I really disagree with. A LOT if not everyone is going to call me stupid, but I get pissed when someon [censored] with something that I worked for, or that is mine. I dont care if it is an inanimate object or not, but I would defend my things, money, cars, jewelery, etc even as far as to kill someone who tried to take them. They are mine, I value my stuff over the life of some douchebag criminal. If I had a situation where someone was messing with my car, or in my apartment, I wouldnt hesitate to silently pull a trigger killing them.

Good luck with this. Granted, it's a really broad justification, but there IS such a thing as deadly force statutes, which vary greatly between states. Generally, though, if you shoot someone breaking into your car and kill them, you're screwed. Same if you shoot someone as they are leaving your house with your stuff. Screwed.
