Well, you've got to understand the history of this law.  This is all a result of court cases. A man resisted an unlawful police entry and was charged with battery on a police officer and resisting law enforcement.

This worked its way up the system and last year, the The Indiana Supreme Court ruled that people cannot legally resist police who illegally enter their home. That ruling overturned centuries of common law.

That ruling was thrown out by the Indiana House and Senate by newly codifying what had been, as I said, centuries of common law.

This is not about shooting cops (although that is one way to resist, and probably not a good way).

key statement here.....

"The Castle Doctrine law says that if someone has entered or is attempting to enter your home without your consent, you're legally permitted to use a reasonable amount of force to expel the intruder from your residence. If you reasonably believe your life or members of your family are in danger, you can use lethal force. The revision to Indiana's law simply states that public servants aren't exempt from such treatment."
