Do criminal home-invaders in Britain always agree that they are only after someone's property and not their blood when breaking into a house?
The best thing about using a firearm to defend your life is that you and the criminal are on equal footing. A 7'0 foot, 350 pound gladiator can easily be taken down by a frail 85 year old grandmother using a firearm to defend her life. It seems that Britain wishes for a return to the Middle Ages when brute strength determined who lived and who died, regardless of the law.
We can all pretend that the world is perfect and harmonious and that everyone gets along and never has any bad intentions, but if someone broke into your home in the middle of the night you would either call the police (assuming that the phone lines haven't been cut/you get a cellular signal) or grab a weapon that relies on strength. If you are injured and cannot effectively use a strength-based weapon, oh well. Sorry grandma, you had a good long life.
No thanks.
