Why so many are so adamant about firearms for self-defense.

Advertisements [?]

Here are two heart-rending examples of why so many believe in keeping firearms for self-defense.

No, no weapon, no amount of preparedness can give you a guarantee of success in the face of adversity.

But my god, my wife will never be in position of the poor woman in the second video.

In the following recordings, both women are fully aware that someone is attempting and succeeding at breaking into their home.

911 call where woman in her home shoots home invader.

911 call where woman in her home is beaten and raped before police arrive.

Heart-rending.
