    If you think before posting, ask yourself: is it normal to break into people’s homes?

    No. It’s incredibly disturbing behaviour, and in the USA they are likely armed as well. They’re not going to nicely ask you not to resist them. That’s why you need to have a gun so you can shoot them before they shoot you.

      With that mindset everyone will have guns, so violence then actually increases.

      The only answer is to dearm everyone.

        In most of the UK, even the average police officer isn’t armed. (In Northern Ireland, the average police officer is armed, but the amount of times the firearms are ever actually fired is incredibly rare. Most of the time they go off is actually negligent. When they do go off, they are always investigated.)

        The problem is, how do you disarm the bad guys when you’ve been giving them guns without tracking them for decades

        Yeah, I think we’re all in agreement about that here. But everyone isn’t disarmed. I won’t give up my gun until I know with 99% certainty that your average burglar won’t get a hold of an illegal firearm.
