Chances your house will never be robbed.  Chances are you'll never need a gun for protection.  Apparently those chances are enough to dictate that you have an ABSOLUTE right to gun ownership though.  Funny how that works.  Or rather, how it doesn't work.  It's no different from everyone saying "PUT PRAYER IN SCHOOLS!" to protect from school shooters, but never rely on prayer at home.
