Gun owners seem to think that just because they have firearms, they will be able to protect themselves. They all watch way too much TV. When these things happen - robberies, break ins, home invasions, they happen quickly and you don't have the time to respond. Even if you have your firearm handy, all this means is that you are now armed and have the potential to protect yourself - You might be able to have a long discussion about the differences in two kinds of ammos, but chances are you cannot handle a tactical situation.
All of this leads up to the end - do you have the balls to potentially take someone's life? Every last firearm owner will tell you they can do it, but most cannot. Some US Marines go into combat they freeze up when it's time to pull the trigger. It's not fear - they can handle that - but it's the taking of another man's life that locks them up.
