Yeah, a gun would be handy. Which is why there aren't ax-wielding maniacs anymore. They all have guns.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.

That's a fair point. Suppose the axe-wielding maniac is a gun wielding manic and shoots you through the door or the window before you even know he's there. He can then retrieve his axe from the boot of his car and dismember you at his leisure.

I dunno. I' 'll stick to guns. Some chance is better than no chance.
My plan is not to worry about such an unlikely event.
I mean what's your plan if someone poisons your food? What's your plan if someone blows up your house with a bomb? What's your plan if someone smothers you with a pillow in your sleep after sneaking into your house while you're away, waiting for you to come home and go to bed to murder you in your sleep.

Just how many Ax Murderers have you thwarted with your handy dandy gun anyway?

If only we stopped selling knives....this was a knife incident, right?

Guns ARE the only choice for home defense. That's why so many people get dogs that have CCW permits.

Okay, so you never met a dog that would have you. It happens.
