While having a gun in situations like these is probably great, I don't think it justifies having a 5x higher homicide rate than almost every EU country. Gun laws must have a stake in that.

and until you figure out how to curtail that, since gun availability, is not a factor, I will continue to CCW and keep guns in my home for defense.

If you really don't get it I will not bother dragging this over another 25 pages discussing the issue ... it's not that important ...lowing wrote:

Are you actually trying to say an alarm is a deterrence but when I point out stores and banks have alarms and they still get robbed, you are claiming that is different? Really?
I like guns.

We can access to CNN, you dont have to post a new topic for every single news.
ummmm wouldn't that ring true for 95 % of all OP's? If you don't want to post anything constructive, keep moving then, simply really.Ottomania wrote:

I didn't think so given the intense debates here regarding home invasion. However, comment still stands, if it is to blase' for you, keep moving and don't worry about it.Ottomania wrote:

Fuck installing an alarm. Just leave a mannequin covered with fake blood in your kitchen.
I'd type my pc specs out all fancy again but teh mods would remove it. Again.
The point of hollow points isn't the lack of range, it's the lack of distance they go after hitting an object. They stop (or severely slow down) after hitting objects such as people and walls making them a good home defense round.Dilbert_X wrote:

Shoot hollow points. Plus, a .22 i not exactly the optimal home defense round
.22lr is a very low powered cartridge and has a lethal range measured in miles, .45 is many times more dangerous.
Apart from family do I have anything I think is worth risking blowing my neighbours kids head off in order to protect?
No. Even for family a knife or bat would be my first pick.
Would I want everyone in my street armed and ready to start spraying bullets around to protect their TV or porcelain miniatures?
Not likely.

this thread makes me sad
doucheface broke in because nobody was home
an alarm would have made him steal shit faster and then just run away without being caught
forcibly enter someones home = you give up your right to safety. don't like it? don't do it
as far as police being "professionals" with firearms.... many can barely tell you what caliber their sidearm is

Oh wait, is there where I both my legs and arms are cut off and I go blind, so my wife and kids abandon me and I am left with no choice but to break into someones house in order to survive?
