Curious to hear points of view on Home Invasions from Anti-Gun population.

When I was 16, I started learning Navy Seal fighting methods - offensive, not defensive. I also started Tai Chi and learned to balance my body in various positions.

I have a whitewater kayak paddle next to my bed. Fiberglass blades that can slice someone open, and a 1 1/2" carbon fiber one piece shaft. I sleep well.

A lone intruder may be in trouble, but a gang of thugs breaking in would probably overpower a kayak paddle. People that live in nice quiet neighborhoods and gated communities cannot fathom the rest of the urban jungle, nor can they comprehend the necessity for firearms among law-abiding hard-working everyday folks.

Hell! What if an alien craft full of smarmy violent sex-crazed ETs attacked your community and wanted to take up residence in your home?!!

Yeah, but they gots lasers.
I just gots bullets.

Maybe they do...maybe they don't. Bullets are still a better bet than kayak paddles. LOL!

True.
But what if it's someone with a Navy Seal Tai Chi kayak paddle?

With fiberglass blades and a, um, really big shaft in various positions....?

Surely any alien would run from that. I know I would

They'll tell you : it can't happen to me! I'm special!! If it happens, I'll call the cops, they'll save me.

Gun control advocates live in a fantasy world.
