With gun ownership on the rise and the numbers of those with concealed carry permits exploding, a new poll shows that Americans are ready to use those weapons if threatened.
In a survey for Insurancequotes.com, 78 percent said that they are mentally and physically prepared to kill an intruder. And even those armed with less lethal weapons, such as pepper spray or a golf club, would kill if they had to.
Some 44 percent of homes have a gun, according to the Pew Research Center.
The thrust of the survey was to see how well prepared Americans are to handle an intruder and it appears they generally feel up to the task.
Overall, about 45 percent believe that they will face an intruder at some point.

When held by the neck and swung at one’s opponent, the Fender P-Bass makes a perfectly balanced and lethal weapon.
That’s why it is called “an AXE”. LOL!
Of course, there is the legendary “Brown Note” which can also be lethal.
The Bass-Player’s Blessing:
May you always be able
To scale any mountain.
May you always be ready
To Marshall your confidence.
And may your heart and mind
Always be Fretless.
You have to OWN IT before you can CARRY IT. :-)
I got a niblick under there. What I do is yell "I'm gonna hit you wit my niblick" and then when they're Googling it up I make my escape. For multiple threats I go to a mashie.
The cops always arrive in minutes, when they are needed in seconds.
What a quirky program!
I loved it.
