If I were worried about such, I'd be trying to move, too.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] Fw: Gun Ownership
I generally try to stay out of the gun nonsense on here, but let me suggest
that if you truly feel you need a gun to protect you in your own home, you
should think seriously about moving, maybe out of the USA, to some place
where there are not so many guns and whack jobs carting them around.
I live in a city of reasonable size and I really don't worry about being
attacked in my own home. If I were to wander into some of the dark alleys
down in the core area at night, carrying a box of beer, that might be a
different story, but out here in the suburbs, I don't worry at all.

I think two points are worth making:
One: A firearm may be an important element in home protection but it's
seldom the most important part. Planning is the most important part.
But
firearms become more important in rural areas, areas without nearby
neighbors, and in cases where physical limitations limit fleeing. Even
so,
planning is most critical: safe room location and configuration (doors,
windows, cover, concealment, and clear lines of fire), drills/rehearsal,
training family members, etc.
Two: The political issue is usually stated as left-right,
liberal-conservative, etc. This is misleading. The real issue is
individualism vs. collectivism. Individualism is based on rights and
responsibilities; there are lots of objective criteria here.
Collectivism,
unfortunately, can justify anything if it's for the common good.

a gun to "protect you".. I own a gun, if I own one, to "Protect Me and
