You might change your mind if you’ve ever had someone try to break into your home at 3am. Happened when I was a kid. Fortunately my father had a lowly 0.22 rifle. The sight of the rifle in my fathers’s hands was enough to convince them to leave.
My father is as left-leaning as they come (and an Italian immigrant) but he knew even then that the police can’t always protect you.
- 4ggr0 6y agoYeah, I hear about a lot of examples like yours. I have an air rifle laying around somewhere, maybe that could scare someone off :D I was raised by the standards of "Talk or Run away", and I want to adhere to them. But I don't live in the US and in my country I don't have to be afraid to be home-invaded, especially not with guns. I see that some people "need" guns, I just don't want that as a pacifist. To each their own I guess ;)
