Len,
Leave all firearms behind or get some education about their uses.

I've seen a lot of ways a discussion can be slammed down with

Please, please enlighten me, Capt'n, sir. What in your opinion should
I do when I see an attacker or two coming towards my dear wife and me,
definitely planning to rob us from all our money and electronics on

Does your "education about the use of weapons" content that I shoot
and kill them by surprise at say 30 yards ???

I expect (but also doubt) that your courage and no doubt vigorous
mentality permits you to give me some sensible answer...

Some americans really are funny.... LOL
