Of course you can't, but you can eliminate one of the most deadly and destructive weapons they have available to do so.
As for the protection argument: There is signifficant statistical evidence that shows that owning a gun in no way lowers your chances of being the victim of a violent crime, and signifficantly increases the ratio of gun related deaths in and around the household. As Rath said, trying to use your gun against someone using a gun on you is simply pure stupidity.
