I suggest that the law stay the way it is. Guns should be wielded by our person to protect our person and nothing more in these circumstances. I find cases such as these to be nothing more than vindictive examples of negligence and endangerment, personally.

I consider the rigging of a gun to fire upon the opening of the door, unbeknownst to the person opening it, to be one example of a booby trap (what occured in Katko v. Briney to my understanding).
