Constantly see people online talk about "when the robber comes thru my door" or whatever, and some of it is memes, but a lot of it is just people legit discussing what the "best weapon" to fight robbers breaking into your house at night would be - Giving it so much thought as if it is a legitimate concern. So is it? Does it happen a lot?

All the Asian families in my grandma's neighborhood had glue poured in their locks during covid. There was also that one rapper who bragged about "only robbing chinese". Even if these people get caught they just get a slap on the wrist.

Look at what happened to that 7yo Palestinian boy. If you have a family and you're a minority in America it would be negligent not to have a gun.
