With regards to using lethal force to protect your property, I don't know if a life is worth any property, especially when most insurance will cover it. A home is a bit different, though, since there's a reasonable fear for your life.
This probably could have been posted in the other riot question thread you seemingly abandoned after it was filled with thoughtful and rational responses. It's odd that your only comments on this issue are focused solely on the riots, rather than George Floyd's murder, the majority peacefully protesting, or the authoritarian assaults against peaceful protestors.
Agree with all of this, but I want to add something. The idea that property is of equal value to human life is part of the ***** problem.
