You’re making their point for them. No one is popping a boner because someone broke into their house and might injure or kill them. They will likely be traumatized either way, so for all the human life is sacred persona you are running in this thread, you actually don’t seem to care about the victim here at all.
You are right in the second half though. There are real stakes. It could be the victim’s life just as easily, and that’s the whole point.
It’s perfectly true. I see people excited by the idea of shooting a burglar. But if they have to do that, they’ll understand that the reality is not what they imagined. It’s traumatic to be burgled, but even more to be burgled and killing someone, at least for decent people. And I think most people in this thread are decent, their imagination is just corrupted by a fucked up culture. I’m just trying here to state facts to counter this culture.
I don’t see any other reason for people to prefer a firearm, which is dangerous for the owner and the owner’s family and if used “successfull”y will leave everyone ever more traumatized over actual security systems and deescalation technics.
