Re: thinking about leaving the us

True, but just as likely what happens is you shoot your self with it while cleaning it or a family member uses it to commit suicide, or a kid finds it and hurts them selves, or it sits in a drawer for 30 years forgotten. Maybe not for you specifically, but for allot of people this is the case.
Also, you could use a good non lethal method to achieve the same purpose more than likely. For instance, loading the first 2 rounds of your mag with simunition (most firearms defense situations end without a shot anyway), or hell just having a knife or baseball bat of your own and making sure they see it, or going to the door with your phone ready to call 9 1 1 and asking them what they want through the door or with it open slightly but a good chain lock on.
Keeping the porch light on at night, investing in a mid priced security system, locking closed Windows ETC, are all ways to avoid coming across a home invader randomly as well.
People should of course have the right to defend them selves, how ever, a lethal weapon which is just as dangerous in the hands of an idiot as it is useful in the hands of someone trained isn't it IMO, not with the laxness of most gun owners and the half assed training requirements of most states.
This preparing for an unlikely situation with the most powerful tool available thing needs to stop being in the public consciousness. The stats just do not back it up, and even in the places that it does make more sense, their are still alternatives.
