Saw this clip today.
Lots of good in it, lots of 'needs improvement'.
Lots of not respecting the law or peoples rights.
(more videos of this in case you want to look)

I applaud their stance to protect their property and face the threat head on.
They do need training, manly in the safety and management of their firearms. However in a stress situation, they probably did the best their level of competence could provide. Even a couple of hours watching some quality youtube content on the procedures would help them.
Not liking them pointing their muzzles in unsafe directions, or the lack of proper weapon management. One would think that a family who lives in such a home would be able to better equip themselves, Both need long guns with pistols holstered. A partial tactical set up is not that expensive. Even body armor should be an easy purchase for them to budget. At least have extra mags, first aid kit, etc. handy if not on your body. He's probably had that old AR for more than 30 years, LOL. Don't mean it's obsolete (got one similar, it'll definitely do the job.), but a more modern iteration would probably be more practical.
They should know better (he is a lawyer) than to point his weapon in such a manner, many might consider that not only unsafe but threatening, and illegal. She needs some serious explaining on her approach as well.
(however it can be said they were facing people committing criminal acts when this was filmed.)
One the whole, they got by. Good job.
