small gun safe

Amazing how odd that sounds to people that don't live in the 19th century

Home defense is only normal in the 19th century? I have kids and own guns, not sure what else would be expected.

It's not normal to need that kind of defence in the 21st century... bandits and what not really aren't a thing here because we have social security safety nets and (admittedly quite crap) mental health care.

You have no idea where they live, and break-ins happen anywhere

Are you saying that the country you live in has a violent crime rate of zero?

[–] intelisense@lemm.ee 12 points 6 months ago

Zero? Probably not. Low enough that I don't worry about it? Definitely.

I'm sorry to hear you live with that fear everyday.

You mean "Sorry to hear you're so cowardly that you feel you need a gun to protect you from cowards" 😂
