This is why you aim at the target.

You don't suppose gun-nuttery is ultimately a self correcting problem, do you?

Somebody breaks into the gunner's home.
The gunner says "Hang on, I've got to load my piece."
"Take your time, mate, I'm a good sport."
"Thank you kindly. Now I'm ready to shoot you dead."
"Fair is fair!.
NRA rules negate the "home defense" meme.

Meh, not really, my guns are all safely stored, but it would take longer to walk down my hall than it would for me to ready one of them. A gun isn't exactly a great home defense instrument anyway. It's not like our walls are bulletproof, and that, much more than some idea that you could just never get a safely stored weapon ready...negates the "home defense" meme.
I'd rather not shoot at a burglar and accidentally hit one of my kids, or someone else's kids. I'd rather swing a bat at my wife in a case of midnight mistaken identity than shoot her in the stomach with a 303. Hell, I'd rather not shoot anybody at all, for any reason. The only people who dream about that sort of shit are psychos or people that have never done it.

It;s important to give credible -reasons- for our agreement, though..otherwise, some gun nut loon will tell you what I just told you, and -rightly- dismiss your objection to his lunacy. He absolutely and demonstrable -can- ready his safely stored weapon for action in a matter of seconds.
No sense in making it easy for the loons, amiright? That's the value of a factual, rather than counterfactual, narrative in the gun debate, if we hope to effect change.
