Gun safes have their place, ...but the good people, armed to protect themselves from the bad people, don't have time to go searching for their guns in safes when said bad people are smashing down their front doors, side doors, windows etc trying to rape them or their families [a rape or attempted rape occurs in America every 5 minutes], trying to bash and rob them, steal their cars and every valuable they have...or worse, kill them.
The good people need to be wearing their handguns and have their AR 15s within easy reach.
An AR 15 is a valuable tool for self defence...especially against violent home invaders.
20 million Americans think so, they have one.
Ideally strict purchasing and ownership rules around assault rifles would apply...maybe must be age 21 to buy one.
Serial killers knock on people's doors in the middle of the day...refer serial killer BTK [Bind, Torture, Kill]...they strike when the husbands are at work.
Every woman in America should own and carry a gun...and be trained to special forces standard in their use.
Remember that young mom with her toddler daughter sitting beside her on the sofa, in her own home. her husband having left for work...who was bashed, kicked, punched, ...then when the big, huge, monster of a man [who happened to be Black] intruder came back downstairs having searched for things to steal, bashed her again and threw her down the stairs into the basement?
She could've done with an active alarm on her door as a warning, and an AR 15 at the ready to shoot the intruder when he appeared in her living room.
Or a handgun ready to fire.
