By Florida statute, we have Castle Law and Stand Your Ground. If someone comes to my door, uninvited, they are trespassing on my private property. I consider that a potential threat to myself and to my property. I have the right, according to Florida law, to shoot them.

However - I wouldn't shoot them because I don't own a gun. I will warn them. If they continue - well I'll get my bow and arrows, which aren't considered firearms. And I'll shoot'em anyway
