Now if you get shot breaking into my house and die, IS/WAS IT PREMEDITATED? In the broadest sense of the word. YES.

No, in fact, that is not true - Montana's Castle Doctrine (which this nationalized case is designed to attack) would give the benefit of the doubt to the defender.

I used that ‘example’ based on the definition of PREMEDITATED.

Think out, or plan, beforehand.

But ‘premeditating’ in the sense I used should not ‘assist’ the prosecution.

If the guy hadn’t been ‘breaking the law’, my pre-planned action would never have been needed.
