Perhaps I'm just not macho enough, but for me it's about personal protection and not home protection.
If someone wants to break into my house and steal my stuff fine. Heck, I'll help you load the car. I'm not going to risk my life to save material possessions that I can replace.
I think the scenario everyone here appears to be prepared for is that home invasion where the creepy guy sneaks into your bedroom to grope your wife. Although this type of incident is EXTREMELY rare, I have no problem with someone having a plan to defend themselves. Just keep those weapons away from the kids and concealed from the intruder. Having a sicko break into your house is a bad thing, having that sicko shoot/cut/smash you with your own gun/sword/club is worse.
