Why does it seem like Americans are obsessed over home invasions? Do you have a lot of them? (hexbear.net)

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?

I have never experienced a home invasion but my friends were murdered in one. In the US.

But instead of everyone just conjecturing based on their subjective experience, why doesn’t someone look at the statistics? Should be easy enough.
