This presents an interesting twist on the liberals’ whiny “If you have a gun it’s more likely to be taken away and used on you”. That’s exactly what happened to the home invader. Sounds like he shouldn’t have had a gun, since it proved dangerous to him. I’m sure they’ll be standing in line to lecture criminals about this danger.
He is essentially right although most make the assumption drugs n gang activity are the driving cause and that is a common reason. The gang-bangers also look for folks who are known to keep large amounts of cash and valuables in the house like members of some immigrant groups.
There was a attempted home invasion by 2 Asian gang members in the the bay area city of Alamo a few years ago. Alamo is very upscale with multimillion dollar homes. The homeowner was a wealthy doctor who flaunted his wealth like wearing gold chains,expensive rings,nice toys etc.
The gang-bangers worked as part of a furniture moving crew to case their victims. One bad guy got smoked by the doctor but the other bad guy killed the doctor. He in turn was beat senseless by the wife and brother in law using a iron skillet.
If somebody I don’t know knocks on my door at 10:30 p.m., I’m going to have my Beretta .40 with me when I answer it.
