Why bother? If someone breaks in to steal your Beanie Baby collection, you can just submit an insurance claim. Besides, the police will be there in seconds, won't they? And if we can get strong gun control laws, that means the criminals will be unarmed, so good people will be safe until the police get there. [Note: the world has reached such a sad state that many typical leftists sound like sarcasm from the right. This post may contain some sarcasm.]
If the SHTF and someone breaks into our house then, in a totally unrelated coincidence, our pigs won’t need to be fed for a day or so.
Most likely, it’ll be your brother who welcomes them in and shows them the Beanie Baby collection and everything else. His excuse will be, “but, but I didn’t know, whaaa!” as they’re slitting your thoat.
