Wait, I'm no pro gun person, but like if some fucking random breaks into my house even to steal bread, you can bet your ass I'm threatening them back out with a knife or some shit. How would anyone know that they're there as a poor person stealing bread and not to mess with your family? I doubt you or anyone else would act differently under that pressure short of being really well trained in conflict diffusion. This whole thing seems super disengenous.
I thought this was about shooting people?
Let me make it clear then, if a gun was around I would threaten them out / shoot them with the gun if they wouldnt leave. Pick your tool and I would at least try to use it. The part of Your strength argument that I don't think makes sense and isn't real is that if a poor person breaks into your house that you would allow them to steal from you from a high moral stand point. Further, you would somehow manage some sort of completely calm demeanour because you somehow know that they are someone in need there to steal and not there to hurt you or your family.
Okay, but you're making a completely different argument than the person I am discussing is making. Especially since you mentioned a knife before. You can chase someone like that out of your home without a gun.
Really, most home invaders can be driven out with a baseball bat. The ones that can't... I guess be prepared to murder them.
Also, with a bat, you're less likely to kill a family member you think is a criminal you're defending yourself from.
