    Yeah, because as we all know that having a gun automatically means that you are crime-proof.

    And, as we also know owning a gun means that should a criminal somehow make it through your crime-proof barrier he doesn't have a chance in hell of actually succeeding in his efforts.

    Also, one wonders why the invaders were weilding "a machete and a truncheon"? Why didn't they come in with guns?

    Careful, he'll come back and say he never said anything about the British Government and it's all just a figment of your imagination

    Having a gun sure didn't help Chris Kyle.

    What a stupid thing to say. She was caught by surprise in her own home. What is she supposed to do, walk around with it attached to her pregnant hip all day? She couldn't just leave one sitting out on the kitchen table just in case, given that she had a small child and responsible gun ownership means keeping them locked up so children can't get to them. I absolutely believe armed citizens can protect themselves, but your headline in this case is positively moronic.
