Mass shooting in Las Vegas. 50+ dead

[Brian37]

Maybe like making an home intruder turn an run instead of raping your wife or convenience store robber decide it's not worth the risk.

I understand you might not be the kind of guy, but if an intruder alerts me enough in my home close quarters to give me time to reach to a gun, It also gives me time to reach for my fists.

It's a stupid idea that guns can protect you at home. in close quarters, even if you are not too strong, a baseball bat does the trick.

It is far more likely that by complying, running or as a last resort, confronting without a firearm has a far higher rate of success than introducing a firearm into a conflict where another person already has the drop on you with their own firerarm.

If you leave your firearm in you closet on a top shelf, or under your pillow for easy access, it is far more likely you or a family member will injury or kill someone in the home. But even for those who do the right thing and lock them up in a safe, a home intruder isn't going to wait for you and say, "Lets start back to back in a 10 pace duel" like Arron Burr and Hamilton and wait for you to do your combo and retrieve you weapon from the safe.


So the only thing really the far right can do is live in paranoia 24/7 and assume everyone is out to murder them. And that is just absurd.
