    Gun is for paranoid people who always find excuses in justifying owning a gun. It's not much about need but want...

    People who owns firearms feel they're indestructible, they feel tough, they feel big, they feel they are wearing big boy panties, they feel nobody could mess with them since they own a firearm...yes guns makes you feel superior and it's addictive....

    that is ridiculous. i don't own a gun, never will... some just want it for protection and they have that right. gun control is a MYTH MYTH it cannot happen. no one person or institution can round up all the guns.  We need a deterrence period Make all crimes with a gun a  FEDERAL- mandated crime put in federal prison....minimum 10 years....

    If someone with a gun breaks into my house with the intention of harming me and my family how do you propose I stop him if I’m unarmed? Sure I call the police, but what do I do while I’m waiting the 5+ minutes for them to show up? 

    Run around like a Benny Hill episode?

    Beg for mercy from a violent criminal?

    Should my family, the armed criminal, and I all play a board game while we wait for men with guns to rescue me and my family because I couldn’t do it myself?

    I’m all ears.

    If you think somebody can break into your house, I think you need to invest in better door/window locks and electronic security system before considering protecting your family and properties with your gun... 

    Also, do you think somebody will break into your house while you are wide awake? Criminals are not stupid. They will break into your hose while your are asleep and dreaming about your Sundays football pick. Before you know it, they already have a cold steel pointed at your nose.

    I know, you need gun as a compensator..

    Beg for mercy from a violent criminal?

    Should my family, the armed criminal, and I all play a board game while we wait for men with guns to rescue me and my family because I couldn’t do it myself?

    I’m all ears.

     


    If you think somebody can break into your house, I think you need to invest in better door/window locks and electronic security system before considering protecting your family and properties with your gun... 

    Also, do you think somebody will break into your house while you are wide awake? Criminals are not stupid. They will break into your hose while your are asleep and dreaming about your Sundays football pick. Before you know it, they already have a cold steel pointed at your nose.

    I know, you need gun as a compensator..

    I’ve participated in dozens of gun related threads here and never has an anti-2A person been able to give me a straight answer to that question.

    But you’re a smart guy so I’m sure you’ll be the exception.  I anxiously await your answer.

    So because someone can’t protect their family every second of every day they should give up trying to protect them at all? 

    Great logic.

    You are so deluded.  Look up what happened in Cheshire Connecticut.  Two scumbags followed a mother and her 11 year old daughter home.  They broke in and over the course of 7 hours they took turns raping the women (including the 11 year old) and then murdered them.  Only the father survived.

    Maybe you should tell the father that if he possessed a gun and the knowledge to use it properly that would have only made things worse for his family.  I mean after all, they were only raped and murdered.  It could have been much worse, right?

    That should make him feel better.

    And did you just refer to a man’s penis and then make a ““ emoticon?   It’s not difficult to ascertain what’s on your mind.  Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

    Wow! You brought up the perfect example. The father was sleeping on the couch and was bludgeoned with a baseball bat! Would he be able to shoot one of the suspects, if he has a gun on him? Nope, they'll shoot him first before he can even raise his gun. 

    I hope you'll never use your gun, if you did, you will regret it. Your gun cannot protect you and your family. In fact, it's the opposite. There's a bigger chance that a member or your family will die with your own firearm than a future armed intruder.

    Just admit it, your firearm serves as your compensator...nothing more...

    So, you're only a part time home protector? If your not around your family, they're on their own? Good job.

    Owning a gun is not justifiable if you're only going to be a part time home protector. Like I said, you need to invest in excellent electronic security system...

    So men are the only ones who can own guns and receive proper training?  But hey, everything worked out well in the end, right?  I mean his wife and daughters were only raped and murdered.  Good thing they didn’t have a gun in the house otherwise things could have been really bad.  

    I used some of my guns last weekend.  I can’t say I recall regretting it though.

    Guns can’t protect someone or their family?  There are thousands of cases of them doing just that so you’re clearly wrong.

    And there’s only a higher chance of accidentally hurting a family member if you’re an irresponsible gun owner.

    I know this might come as surprise to someone that lives in mommy’s basement, but some of us adults actually have jobs where we sometimes have to leave the house.  Shocking, I know.

    I already do have an “excellent electronic security system.”  However, I live in the real world where I know the alarm isn’t set 24/7 and even if it was I’m not going to bet my life on an armed violent criminal immediately running away from a loud noise.

    I’ll ask you again:

    If someone with a gun breaks into my house with the intention of harming me and my family how do you propose I stop him if I’m unarmed? Sure I call the police, but what do I do while I’m waiting the 5+ minutes for them to show up?

    Run around like a Benny Hill episode?

    Beg for mercy from a violent criminal?

    You are in a 'reactionary' situation.  Likelihood that you will be able to draw your weapon, let alone use it, is very unlikely.  Trust me, they are not gonna come to your door and announce they are gonna hurt you.
