I firmly believe the best way to secure your home and family are through the basics- dead bolts and faithfully locking your doors and windows. Home intruders will move onto an easier target if your home is secure. Can all the people who have guns at home for protection honestly say they've taken all the necessary precautions to secure their home?
Who is to say you'll even wake up if an intruder comes in at night? Your family will be safer in a secure home rather than a home with gun.
The house across the street from me was burglarized a month ago. The intruder entered an unlocked door when no one was home. At first I was disturbed that the crime was so close to me. But, when I look at how lax my neighbors are with security, I actually feel safer because I can't imagine an intruder would bother with my house when there are so many easier targets.
