Who needs a gun?

Guns are for personal protection and clearly the only way to have the upper hand in a fight (according to Americans, any way)

I have a machete that was gifted to me by my landlord. I have had my home invaded and honestly I don't feel safe discharging a gun in a home where there are other people living. Bullets can fly through walls and shit.

You don't need a gun. My neighbors got their home invaded at gun point and they took the invader out with fucking SCISSORS they had to react quickly and one of the housemates stabbed the guy with the gun, shots got fired and no one was hit.

The guy and his accomplice fled the scene with stab wounds and was picked up at the hospital and is looking at a 20 year sentence for discharging a weapon in home invasion.

Guns don't save lives, quick thinking and problem solving saves lives. Sometimes people don't have time to grab a gun and who wants to always be strapped up with a gun on the hip? thats just psychotic.

Because a gun works better

When someone can use one. Most people think they can shoot well when they suck dick at hitting a target. A gun is useless and a hindrance when someone cant shoot properly.

Most people who have guns aren't accurate at what they are shooting at.

Im not I shoot guns and know how to use one. When there is someone already in your house at 4:00 am running around there is a chance that a shot will miss and hit a roommate through their wall and I am not willing to risk that unless there is something seriously gone wrong.

People that advocate everyone should have a gun is ridiculous. There are many people who can't shoot worth shit. If your in the area and they don't know how to hit their target why is it wort it to put more lives at risk.

Be a fucking man and take the guy out without a gun. In close combat guns are useless. Learn some martial arts and man the fuck up. Guns are not needed most people that are aggressive and start shit like a home invasion don't know what the hell they are doing and are easy to take out. I beat my home invader to shit in the living room and sent him on his way and he never came back after that and I am making sure of it.

There is a news article on it and Ill get it out if you guys don't believe me.

"Around 3 a.m. July 24, two men with dark bandanas over their faces burst into a split-level home on Newell Street. Three young men were still awake in the living room doing homework and playing video games, according to charging papers filed in Whatcom County Superior Court. The intruders had semiautomatic handguns.

One resident, Christopher, 21, recognized one of the masked robbers, a young man with a buzz cut, as Matthew Joseph Wright, 21, of Valley, Wash.

The intruders demanded the residents’ cellphones and wallets. The second suspect — a slightly shorter man, later identified as Anthony Lewis Delgado, 22, aimed a silver-and-black handgun at the head of one man at close range and ordered him several times to get down on the floor.

Wright shoved one of the men down on a couch, aimed his gun at the man’s head, and demanded his iPhone, according to the charges. The robbers gave similar orders to Copeland, but he didn’t comply fast enough for the robbers’ liking. So Delgado fired a .22-caliber bullet into the ceiling as a warning. A fourth roommate upstairs, Daniel Peterson, heard the gunshot and the scuffle. He locked himself in his room and dialed 911.

The robbers loaded things into a duffle bag. As they started to leave, Copeland grabbed a pair of pruning shears and, in a melee, stabbed Delgado in the shoulder, then slashed at Wright. Another resident, Kevin McShane, 21, was pistol-whipped three times in the head as he helped to repel the robbers. Delgado and Wright left a blood trail to the street as they fled.

Police found two duffel bags left behind at the victims’ home. Inside were long zip ties, duct tape and bleach. According to police, Wright would have known there was a small marijuana grow in the house. The men meant to steal cash and cannabis from the home, Chief Criminal Deputy Prosecutor Eric Richey said."

Oh, hey look everyone, he's a good shot because he shoots guns and knows how to use them. Mmkay

So if I have a guy in my house I shouldn't use a gun to deter him or take him out. I should "man up" and put myself in further danger by making matters hand to hand. That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

I don't want to get hurt just as much as I don't want to have to hurt the intruder. But if someone's going to get hurt it's not going to be me.

So using that same logic, should cops "man up" and go about their duty unarmed?

I never said don't use a gun. If you are in your house and you can grab a gun and there is someone breaking the door down get the gun and tell them you are armed and will shoot. All I am saying is there are times when a gun can't be gotten to and guns aren't needed to thwart a robbery. Guns aren't the answer. Quick logical thinking is all that is needed. Many robbers are stupid as fuck.

If you think you need a gun your a pussy and have never had your house invaded and had someone running through your house in a split second.

I have had my house invaded and I had to react quick. That means no time to run and get the gun, no time to fuck around. Its shitty but if you give them time to think they will get you. Its a situational thing.

Guns aren't going to save you your head is. Thats whether your holding the gun or not. The one behind the gun is responsible for the actions NOT THE GUN!

I have also been versed in how to shoot 9mm berreta since I was 10 years old so I can hit a target no problem. There is more than just owning a gun, if you are wanting it for protection. You have to know what you are dealing with and need to know how to use it.

At the momment I don't own a gun because I wish to not live with a combat weapon in my house. My home is an establishment of peace and sanctity. I do not want to have to flex behind a gun like some NRA dumb ass. Maybe eventually Ill have one but not now when I live with quite a few people who drink a lot. There baseball bats and other things that can be used if there is an actual problem.

Well you basically did right there.

And no shit, if you can't get to a firearm then you have to turn to other means.

But don't go around saying that a man who relies on a firearm for protection is a lesser man.

However I agree with this 100%

Wow you're a badass for not owning a gun.
 
I don't think there will ever be a more perfect thread for this gif.

I just think it's bullshit how people say they need an assault rifle to defend their homes. Any urban specialist will tell you a rifle is a horrible idea to use in a close quarters situation, especially if their are other inocents. I have a very nice sog that I keep right where I can reach it under my bed. Because I know if I don't have time to get up and use that I would have time to use a firearm either. The easiest solution is to get security system for your house and nice big deadbolts for your doors and windows. You could get those for the same cost of a nice firearm. I only own one gun. Have never had a need to use it outside the range. Have used my knife much more often.

Most people with "assault rifles" or whatever you wish to call them use the defense argument to justify their need to own one. In reality though, 99% of people use them purely for recreation or hunting.

I wouldn't say 99%, at least not where I live but that is true to a extent.

No idea how you're sitting with negative feedback, that whole story seemed pretty solid and believeable...

Who needs a gun? This guy, and gun(s)! But only because they go bang and make your dick a little bit just a little hard and the urge to shout America.
