Yep....innocent person gets killed faster when the bad guys try to kill you and innocent person is unarmed.
Or when someone watches the financial channel with a gun nearby
Don't get me wrong wolfie.... I love shooting guns I have a few hand guns, rifles and my original Mossberg 12G pump I got when I was 13. The problem is the people today have no respect for human life.... I work in a juvenile detention center, for 24 years at that, and some of the stories I could tell you would make you puke.....
I know you saw the Philly bus shoot em up in the news! ( if anyone can find that video and post it here..) How can we make it possible for those complete idiots to get even near a gun????
and I understand your position too, and I too would like to live in a world without violence, but such a World does NOT exist (NOR has it ever existed in the past) , only normal people with reasonable judgement should own a gun....but fact is people can easily go crazy without warning
I wish I could have a solution, so far I only think if the bad guys DO have guns....I would like to have one too, alternative is that only the true wackos end up with guns.

Right on, my Texas brother.
And since it's reasonable to presume that any intruder to your home is seeking valuables and not you personally, getting him (them) OUT is most important.
Thus a shotgun is best because the simple sound of racking a shell in an otherwise quiet house will shrink the intruders' balls to raisins and you can be assured they will exit the premises immediately.
True enough, but let's all be honest and admit that no one will be "breaking down our front door" unless they have a specific plan to enter and kill us personally.
If you've got a chance for that level of heat in your life, you might want to first clean up a few relationships before worrying about what gun you're going to have on hand for the contract killer(s).
I bought a Springfield 1911 45 mm in January. Previously, I had no desire to own a handgun. Some incidents in my neighborhood made me wake up. Its better to have one and not need it, than to need one and not have it. I shoot about once a month and feel very confident in my skills. I have since added a CZ 9 mm with night sites and a surefire lighting system, to illuminate a potential target in the dark. The world is a different place today, as noted by many. There are a lot of very desperate/crazy people out there. BOL with your investment!
