I didn't have my home broken into or anything like that, and probably went a bit too far. This was a while ago. My folks were having a party of sorts, and once everyone was done for the night I stayed up drinking for a number of hours with one of their friends. Without bothering to elaborate on specifics, we got into the subject of politics and as you might predict, he wasn't impressed with some of my views. I was not being belligerent in any way and remained calm the whole time, but he got so furious at what I was saying and the fact I was honest, calm and upfront about it without resorting to insults or rhetoric, that he decided to attack me. This guy was huge and towered over me. I was put on the ground and I warned him several times to get the fuck off me while he was yelling in my face. I got out of the hold with a few punches in the face and went to go get a nearby kitchen blade. Came back and told him he better get the fuck out. This awoke my folks who then were quite shocked at the situation. In the end he was kicked out and apologized profusely.
I was not really thinking of the fact the tables could have been turned on me physically or, later on, legally, having basically been following my adrenaline and outrage at getting attacked in my own house by some idiot, but in retrospect I probably should not have brought out any weapons to begin with as he basically ceased after breaking out of his hold, and would not have attempted again I am sure.
Besides this all attempts by strangers to break into my home have been thwarted by a scary dog. If this "weapon" wasn't mentioned before, it should have been. One of the best.

With disproportionate force and brutality.
...If I have the chance to reach and unsheathe my sword, that lies very close to my bed.
In my zone there have been some assaults to homes, in particular penthouses like mine, by bands of invaders (amerindians and easterns, mainly) with different grades of violence.
Many times I planned in my mind how could be the situation and in a few I found myself hidden in the shadows of the night in my home with the sword ready waiting someone to enter by my big balcony after hearing or being awake by uncommon sounds.
The idea is simple. If I have the chance to reach and unsheathe silently my loved Toledana (sheath is gently oiled, blade carefully sharped) and a shadow appears in the wrong place, the most easy access from where the assaulters can enter my home...
... I hit to kill. And that would be easy. At least with the first one.
I will not give them the chance to show me how non-violent or brutal they, who dare to break into my domains, will be.
Hey, if someone assaults my home, they will probably ruin their lives and mine, since, if I have the chance, I will go directly to jail or to graveyard.
Antes de subir al cadalso, Juan de Padilla se dirigió a su camarada Juan Bravo con unas célebres palabras: "Señor Bravo: ayer era día de pelear como caballero...hoy es día de morir como cristiano". Ante esto, Juan Bravo pidió ser ejecutado antes que Padilla, "…para no ver la muerte de tan buen caballero". Horas más tarde, también fue ejecutado y decapitado el salmantino Francisco Maldonado.

I actually did defend my home once. A girl broke in while I was asleep, and I grabbed the thing closest to my bed which happened to be a decorative sword, and chased her out. I don't actually remember all of it, either from not being fully awake or the adrenaline rush.

I have the machinist's drawings in my work room to convert a Remington semi-auto shotgun to a belt-fed mechanism; 24 seems to upper limit for smooth feeding. One uses a 25 loop shotgun shell bandolier, with a lead filled shell in the first loop to help the whole feed through.

Old ways are sometimes the best - I have 3 strong dogs, more for pets than defence, but two of them would really go for an intruder, the third would probably welcome them in

It is only natural to react to a life threatening encounter with violence. I will never understand pacifist laws restricting the use of deadly force when such action is required to end an attack.
Indiana, among other states, has enacted what is known as a castle doctrine. This means residents are no longer legally obligated to retreat from a deadly threat before using deadly force to protect themselves.
My wife and I are both determined and prepared to protect ourselves, and our home with deadly force should the need arise.
