don't bother answering, but has your home ever been broken into?
mine was as a child - we were robbed. and then i *caught* someone breaking into my apt as a single woman
the gun was useful that day
i really appreciate that some people will never want to own a gun, & those that do should learn a lot about them, & maybe consider not getting one if they have kids.
but in 2024 USA i'll NEVER agree that we should tell all Americans "guns are bad, stay away from them no matter what"

I’ll proceed assuming you write with genuine intent.
That sounds horrific and you should not have had to experience either of those.
You deserved better. I’m glad you found use and comfort that day, gun or not. I’m glad you felt capable enough to use it.
However, that is still twice in your life.
I don’t intend to undermine the chronic impacts of serious crime on anyone’s life.
But that final statement is not an accurate summary of OP’s points, either.
