I'll let the police clear every nook and cranny of my house. My plan is to hold up in a defensive position that allows me to cover a single avenue of approach. For that purpose a long gun is perfect.
Gotta agree with this, too.

I'm thinking it would be difficult to mount a case against you in court that you were wanting to kill someone with your XYZ gun, when you were hunkered down in your own bedroom and had called the cops. For me, the "barricaded in the bedroom" approach eliminates the risks you take when clearing your house of being ambushed and killed or being portrayed in court as hunting down the poor burglar. I would only clear my house if I needed to protect a person, such as a child, other relative, or friend.
