A good alarm system or a loud dog will keep you the average person safer in their home than a gun. That much is for sure.
Only a gun freak collects modern weapons. Yes there are far better, safer and safer for the family methods of protecting the home.

So we are left with crazy people.

You don't own a dog. Nor have an alarm system.

dogs are aroused by the slightest noise if kept outside they will bark if someone approaches the house if the dog is inside, even more, protection. If an alarm is bypassed by a security code it points to a few people.

As Kane says a burglar will just target the next house. A simple "Beware of the dog" sign and a fake alarm box on the wall is better protection than a gun.
