Secondly, I think you would still hear about the success story of grandpa who kept his magnum under his pillow and successfully scared away 2 intruders when they broke in. If it was a common practice of protection, you would most definitely hear about it somewhere. I know I'd love to hear the news report about grandpa turning into rambo and defending is territory.
