Also, I don't really understand the "a person who's forced his way into your house clearly needs assistance" mentality, especially as a gut reaction. Why should anyone assume that a shower was the only thing the guy wanted when he broke in? How recklessly naive.
What idiot premeditates a kleptomaniac binge and then stops to HAVE A SHOWER? How recklessly assuming.

Even if he wasn't insane, he'd STILL need the mental help for lacking so much foresight.

I had a guy brake into my house and sleep on my sofa one night when I was out, I came home at 6, woke him up and we both had a full English. It turned out the fella was just so drunk he couldn't see that he'd walked in the wrong house for a one night stand with someone who he'd been given the name and number for previously, realised the house was empty and jumped on the sofa and I must've left the door open or something.

So according to your poll, none of those, I'd make him a cuppa and send him on his way. No one would do that without a reason, he's obviously just too far from his home (if he has one) to just pop in for a shower.

EDIT: my examples probably not one to take, I live in an area which everyone looks out for eachother, and the Police tend to avoid coming down my way.

But since I've taken a look at other posts everyone on here is really really trigger happy, why would you grab a bat and go to town on a person having a shower? It's only a shower... Maybe it's a Brit thing to offer cups of tea to avoid confrontation. But a tea sounds far better than a fight which there's a chance of loosing and getting beaten up by a lubed up naked dude.

I'd probably walk him outside with threat of my gun and hold his ass there till the cops arrived.

Step one: call the police. Now whatever happens, they will arrive and are informed of the situation.

Step Two: Ask the person to leave, and inform him of the cops coming to remove him forcefully if he refuses.

Step Three (Part A): If he decides to leave of his own free will, or even nice enough to stay long enough for the police to know that you weren't lying, then encourage him to do so. End of crisis.

Step Three (Part B): If he decides not to leave, then just wait for the police to arrive to help you remove him, while locked up in a room if he proves violent (I wouldn't just lay down and take a beating if I can't get away, but i would definitely try to avoid violence as much as possible). End of Crisis.

Id call the cops, wait for them to diffuse the situation and if it was genuinely a homeless person or other minor reason id drop charges if not let the courts settle it.

I would just call the police and tell him that the police is on it's way, then I think I would hide, that way if he's dangerous when he gets out he would not see me, since I suck at fighting and attacking him with a knife (since I don't own a gun cause it's illegal in Mèxico) would only get me killed.

I'd beat him into a coma using a baseball bat or crowbar, whichever is closer. Then I'll call the cops and have his freaky ass dragged away.

i would call the police and grab my sword, more for intimidation then anything else it was £20 off e bay blunt and i would probably do more dammage hitting someone with the hilt then the blade =P, and wait for them to arrive.

Obviously flush the toilet or run every other tap. I want this to be the worst shower he's ever going to have. Enjoy your freezing cold/scalding hot water.

So I yell, Uh WTF? WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE? WHO ARE YOU? at the naked guy taking a shower. His big move is to lock the bathroom door?

I barricade the door shut and call the police.

Really theres no reason to shoot the fucker at that point, he's fleeing/trapped and I'm safe.

If he where to get shot before he locked door? Meh it is his own fault, really. I still don't like advocating lethal force, ever since that old texas couple shot and killed 2 kids of a family that was out driving in a dune buggy and accidentally strayed on to their property.

What would I do?

It depends on how cute the guy is and if the shower is big enough for two.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure ManLaw mandates that I lay down an ass-whooping.
