I did read recently about the youth who was shot because he knocked on the wrong door.
We're thought about having a gun in the house. However don't really seeing us being the winner in a shoot-out.

It is estimated by a number of different sources that legally armed citizens stop an aggressive assault/robbery nearly 2 million times a year. Many times, just brandishing their weapon stopped the attack before it started. Take your time on you tube and you can watch hours of videos from television stations across the U.S. reporting on armed citizens that saved themselves or another person. I sat one night and watched them for nearly 2 hours before I got tired and quit. Naturally you aren't going to see this on the national news networks because it refutes their anti-gun narrative. However, they never hesitate to incessantly broadcast and re-broadcast instances where a bad guy kills someone.
