That is a burglary, not a home invasion. But the rule is clear, we need weapons to protect us…good shooting.
As a victim of violent felony crime I don’t think we need 100 round drums for our deer rifles ( thats basically what an AK47 is, a high capacity deer rifle). We can do without 30 round mags and 50 cal. weapons. But a month and a half ago a group of 15 gang members attacked a small group of people beating them badly for their cell phones. That occurred 8 blocks from my house. I’m sorry, but a whistle or even a 5 round 38 won’t do much good in that situation. Almost certainly one of the gang members had a gun. But didn’t use it if he didn’t have to, there by avoiding harsher prison sentences if they were caught.
I look to San Berdoo, where the democratic city attorney said to ‘lock your doors and get your guns’ because they couldn’t afford enough police because of the bankruptcy.
I think the gun owners should be smart enough to give up something, 50 cal weapons and mags over 20. But we can’t disarm our people in our bankrupt inner cities.
