The Star-Tribune reports the story of a homeowner who shot a home invader armed with a knife:
I grabbed our gun, which we keep for protection,” he said. “As I stepped around the corner, he hit me … right between the eyes,” Sokol said. “And I fired the gun.
“Down on the ground he went and I insisted, in a not very nice way, that he not move,” he said. “I held him at gunpoint until the police arrived.” . . .
Sokol said the burglar had a knife, but Sokol doesn’t know if he was hit by that or a fireplace poker that he noticed had been moved.

Barack Obama says there’s no evidence that Sokol was any safer for owning a gun. Good thing Sokol lives in St. Paul, not Chicago.
