Under most circumstances, most of us (not even most 2nd amendment gun nuts) wouldn't instantly harm someone we found in our space (home, office) who wasn't an obvious clear and present danger. We'd challenge/talk to them, call the cops or something.

Our basic mutuality-humanity-recognition instincts are actually far more humane than the design of laws and formal structures we've developed to codify/govern them. Design is inhumane because designing to the "limit of decency" is actually hard.

Trigger-happy gun nuts who would in fact instantly shoot anyone in their claimed territory in a shoot-on-sight mode are either people under orders from military/police regimes OR crazy people who take our space-governance systems a little too literally.
