man chases down home invader in car, shoots kills

Why not? A man with a badge is suddenly infallible? That's been proven wrong time and time again.

Im not a big fan of cops at all. But I trust a third party to make better decisions than an angry victim with a gun. What if the guy had chased after the wrong car and started shooting at some guys who "fit the description" but had nothing to do with the robbery? This is why we have due process, to try and make sure we get it right.

Why not take it on a case by case basis instead of creating blanket laws that will put victims like this guy in prison?

Someone robs you at gunpoint and you chase them down, ask for your possessions back, and have to use deadly force to defend yourself...mayor gives you the key to the city.

Someone robs you at gunpoint and you chase down and murder the wrong people...you go to prison.

Simple.
