right?

If multiple dudes with guns WANT your shit enough, they WILL have your shit. And unless you've got a squad of bodyguards guarding your place 24/7 there's not really a damn thing you can do about it.

Stop acting like you're fucking John Wick or some shit, like you're going to fend them off with a hunting rifle or a shotgun.

That's not reality.

I'm not talking about sneaks who happen inside your house, unarmed, because you forgot to lock your fucking front door.

I'm talking about the guys who drive a fucking minivan through your living room.

The last thing you want to do when someone is pointing a gun at you is try to pull out your gun.

Oh so now the the situation is specific. I wasn't aware that hone invasion was when they drove a car through your living room. That didn't even happen in John Wick, which was an example you used.

Normal people don't buy guns for the thought of 7-20 people invading their home.
They do it for protection from the common thief or potential murderer that is likely alone.

I watched a video last night where a criminal outright admitted the scariest thing is encountering a homeowner who has a firearm in their hand.

Fun fact: statistically, you're more likely to unintentionally kill a family member with a firearm than an intruder as a gun owner! But don't let the insecure gun crowd know about it.

Airbags won't save you in car crash either.

And I'm not talking about 70MPH collission with another car in another lane because you were texting while driving, I mean like 160MPH trying to jump the Grand Canyon.

Cause it does. Most thieves are not willing to risk their lives, having a weapon will cause most to flee. Now the ones that wont, will not be robbing people's homes. They will be hitting banks or bigger targets.

I had no idea that America was so riddled with crime, I've been genuinely shocked looking at the murder statistics.

Huge amounts of the gun deaths don't even fall under the murder definition either.

Explains why so many people feel they need guns when it's such a dangerous place to live.

The Americas are, if we go by pure statistics, the most dangerous place on earth to live.

I wouldn't feel save living in the USA even if I was armed with a bazooka and a tank.

Because, roughly two-thirds of gun deaths are suicides.

Depends on the situation, but generally if your gun isn't immediately accessible then it isn't going to help you. In my case, I can't do that because I have a small child in the house. If someone breaks in I'm not going to have time to go get the gun out of my closet, remove the barrel lock, load it, and then go looking for evildoers

My stairway is the perfect kill zone if anyone breaks in my house. We all sleep upstairs so If anyone breaks in they can rob everything they want from the downstairs, but if they try to come upstairs where my wife and daughter are, I'll be waiting at the top of the stairs with a semi automatic shotgun and a strobe light attachment just waiting for a head to pop around that corner so I can take it off. They won't have time to aim and return fire because I'm just going to mutilate anything that moves.

True, but the reduction in crime in every state that allows concealed carry is noticeable, and significant.

Wow, what a shock. Multiple guys with guns will beat one guy with a gun. I had NO idea! In real life, it's more likely to be one robber who may or may not have a gun. But I sure as fuck don't want to be unarmed if multiple guys with guns are coming after me. That's a worst case scenario.
