"I feel like I need to buy a firearm, because clearly this is going to keep happening. Enough is enough,"

Surely he will choose a one shot musket. Because nobody needs an AR-15 that can hold 30 rounds when a mob is attacking you.

IF you are going to buy a rifle, get a PUMP GUN.= I firmly believe that the AR/AR rifles/carbines will eventually be either restricted, declared to be NFA weapons or simply outlawed but PUMPS fly under the leftist’s radar.
Further, the pump rifles are available in any number of calibers, seldom need repair, shoot accurately, are as easy to scope as a bolt-action & FIRE FAST when necessary.
(I own EIGHT of them in 5.56NATO to 9.3x62mm Mauser calibers.= My PET is a Remington 760 in .300SAV, that was made in 1954 & will put 5 of 5 rounds into a standard size playing card at >200M if I do my part.)

Note: At 73YO my eyes are nothing like they used to be & ALL of my rifles are scoped with 2X Redfields or 2.5X Leopolds these days.
Btw, my very feminine/petite lady has “adopted” my Model 7615P police carbine in 5.56NATO. She is DEADLY with the little carbine out to well past 200M.
