"There's no way to charge someone with a crime if they acted responsibly defending their home from a dangerous intruder with a semi automatic rifle."
There are many ways a person can be charged with a crime for defending themselves. Look at the many news articles where there seemed to be a legitimate self-defense situation, but the jury or judge felt otherwise. If you brandish a pistol...if your pistol goes off...if you display your pistol...then some prosecutor somewhere is going to figure out a way to get you.
The entire system is rigged against you and you have to ask yourself if pulling your pistol out is worth spending a few years in prison. If you are not willing to spend a few years in prison then the self defense situation is probably not justified...
