Because about half of all American households own guns, America's "home invasion" burglary rate is far lower than in countries such as Britain, Canada, Ireland, and the Netherlands, which prohibit defensive gun ownership.

Especially if you plaster NRA, S&W and Ruger decals on your windows and doors.

Amen ... funny but no one ever puts up a gun-free household sign in their windows.

Maybe...or maybe it just means they target you specifically and make sure to come when you're not home so they can get your guns. OR, if they know you're ready, they'll be sure to enter "HOT" because the surprise factor favors them.

I have gun stuff on my minivan because that makes a potential encounter on the road a much dicier proposition and it has worked for me on quite a few hairy situations while vacationing in rural and remote areas, but I leave the "Property Protected by Smith and Wesson" placards off my home! I usually back my car into the driveway so those car decals aren't so readily visible.
