That’s kinda my thoughts on the matter. I have a couple rifles and shot guns that are mostly just family heirlooms, and one rifle that’s explicitly for protection.
Unfortunately i live in one of the most dangerous states in the south, and I’m a minority married to a white woman. When all the racist people in the state were getting all crazy during the trump years, I decided having a rifle that wasn’t an antique was probably a good idea.
But it’s pretty much explicitly for protecting my family and friends from the potential of eventual racial violence. I would actually feel kinda bad for anyone who actually tried to rob my house, there’s just nothing to really steal. Definitely nothing worth dying or killing for. Hell I’d probably make a pretty good return on the insurance claim.
