You don't shoot people in they backs when they are running away. Even if they are burglars. Common sense thing. He should have shot then on the spot.
Although I agree in principle, I have to agree with the old guy. He was burglarized 4 times. He was attacked, beaten and suffered broken bones. It was self defense. Maybe not in an immediate sense, but in a broader view - like stopping them from coming back later.
With the character of the two robbers, I bet they would have come back - maybe to finish both the job of robbing him, and the job of killing him.
