Because a criminal that breaks into your house and kills you has the deterrent of it being against the law. Sure, anyone still could break the law, but the knowledge that it's against the law IS a deterrent, and you know that if someone DOES break in and kill you, they'll at least receive punishment (assuming they're caught.)

Whereas, if the POLICE break into your house and kill you, unless you're talking about a rogue cop, it's usually going to be a completely legal matter. Hence Breonna Taylor, shot dead in her bed because the police broke into her house and started firing wildly (in response to her boyfriend firing a legal firearm at what he assumed were intruders, which HE is allowed to do due to the castle doctrine). No one punished, Breonna Taylor is still dead.

So you don't think cops that do illegal things are doing something illegal? Like, Breonna was a sad outcome but acting like cops shouldn't shoot back against people shooting against them is a bit weird? I mean, I get feeling helpless. But, I would feel helpless against any intruder, regardless of their status.
