Well, here in Illinois, we are expected to hide and wait for the police to arrive.

After I had the gun in my hand but I would bring my son into my wife and my room and let the on duty people clear the house.  It sucks with only one or two people.

To come get the burglar. Weather it's a dead burglar or a live one would be totally up to the burglar (and likely allready decided)...

maybe - it depends on the odds that the neighbors heard the gunfire.

and tell them that there was a dead man in my living room...then when they asked me where all the bullet holes came from I'd explain how I treid to get him to surrender but he just wouldn't! That would give me enough time to take some pictures to post here!

a bunch of idiots for breaking into my house without a warrant or clearly identifying themselves as law enforcement agents.

;)  Ain't I a stinker?

Pretty good, I didn't think of that one.

Better tell them to pick up some better guns and armor if they're going to be doing that sort of thing.

And wait and wait and wait...  From talking to neighbors, I would expect a minimum of a 45 minute wait.  I think the body would begin to smell, before the cops would get here.z

I'm not sure I'd even call the police, depending on the situation; if I thought I made it clear what would happen if he/they returns I think that would be a more effective deterrant than a police arrest. If he was wounded, probably. Dead? Definitely (if only to get the corpse out of my house).

Somebody would have to be pretty stupid to break into my or anybody else's house these days while they are home (unless you live in Chicago, that is). My greatest fear is and always will be that I will be burglarized when I'm not home - my house I live in was broken into during the late '70s when the previous owners were at work. In broad daylight, no less.

If someone broke into my home I would call the police.... and upon finding out I have no right to self defence in this country, get the 100 pound bag of lime outta the barn, grab the excevator and drive to the middle of my large heavily forested lot to fertilize the local conifer population.
