There's no reason to think I'll ever be in the situation where someone is screaming for my harm in my front yard, and to prepare for such a minuscule event is ludicrous. I may as well prepare for a meteor strike or a bear wandering ITP.

I would say you're a sheep, and carry a sheep's mentality, but even sheep know they have a reason to think that they can and will be preyed upon. That mentality is precisely why there are 17 dead in Florida.

What is the police response time to that good area and your house when your alarm goes off? Guess what? That's the exact amount of time a criminal has to take your shite, or rape you, or your wife. You may think you have no reason to think you'll be in that situation, but it happens every fricking day, so thinking that is colossally stupid.

The mentality that a gun is the only thing that will save you is a big part of why those 17 people are dead, and the tens of thousands of others.

Criminals don't usually invade houses with people present. They break into your house when you're gone, to steal your shite, and not get caught. If they are going to break into some house at night, it'll be an unprotected house. They go for easy targets.

Why are you so scared of this specific scenario, that will never happen? Have you seen someone about this phobia?
