@Gun owners:
Well. I suppose that we do differ there. Hunting is not something I appreciate, and while shooting is fun, it's only because of its competitive qualities, as any sport is. Plus, shoot an intruder, and you could get in a huge lot of trouble (here, at least). I prefer bats, martial skills, etc (and should you surprise them, you won't really need distance).
For intruders, they are good for intimidation.

Just curious, but how well would your bat and martial arts skills hold up against someone who has a gun?

If your country wasn't as easrnest as it is to sell people guns, the chance of facing an armed intruder would be far smaller.

In my country, you only see people with knives and lead pipes.

It's true that it is easy for law abiding citizens to get a gun here thank God.  But no matter where you are, criminals can always find a gun on the illegal black market and those are the people that I am prepared for.  And if someone breaks into my home with a knife or a pipe they stand absolutely no chance.
