Breonna Taylor was shot in her own house during a (likely racially motivated) no-knock raid. Her boyfriend shot back at the police and wounded at least one if them. I wouldn’t say he got off “scott free” but he was acquitted.
So in the case where unidentified masked men raid you without a warrant, you absolutely can shoot them. The problem is the law is going to bend over backwards to convict you, so you need an absolutely airtight case, and expect to spend 4 or 5 years in jail awaiting trial at a minimum.
