Constantly see people online talk about “when the robber comes thru my door” or whatever, and some of it is memes, but a lot of it is just people legit discussing what the “best weapon” to fight robbers breaking into your house at night would be - Giving it so much thought as if it is a legitimate concern. So is it? Does it happen a lot?

    I saw a documentary once about Americans who have a lot of guns, and there was one guy in it who kept loaded guns stashed all over his house so he’d “always be ready” if someone broke in. The interviewer didn’t bring up that he was probably also leaving weapons everywhere for the burglar to use against him, and I wonder if he’d ever even considered why that might be a bad idea.
