So maybe, it is right to ask the person what does he want in your house?

Just to be on the safe side.
Hotels are not the same as your home and besides, I don't travel with a gun. Walking in my house at night, unlocked, is not likely and usually the person will be saying hello. But I will still greet them with a gun.

My mindset to shoot and ask questions later, is based on sounds of forced intrusion. If you ring my door in the middle of the night, I will answer it with a gun, If I don't know you, you will be told to leave, without me openning the door. If the door gets jiggled after being told to leave, you might get shot through the door.

I have no desire to hurt anyone, but I leave very little chance for someone to hurt me or my family.
