Whether or not a yard enclosed by a fence and locked gate is considered part of your "castle domaine," and can be defended as such, is up to the individual laws of your state.
I pointed a revolver at a drunk who was in my backyard (I also have a 6-foot fence and locked gate) several years ago.
He was in my yard taking a whizz, and when I opened the sliding glass door and told him to stop pissing on my azaleas, he turned and charged at me. He stopped dead in his tracks, and then turned and scrambled back over the fence.
