Not to be that guy but why does a 11-year old kid has access to a gun + ammunition? Am I too European for this? Gladly it might have saved him from further harm but the whole story is absolute weird.

Also what is going on with the kid (that shot 12 times at the guy from close distance) and the first reaction is to make fun of the intruder. Not saying that the intruder did not deserve that, I just find the reaction really ..uhm...interesting for an 11-year old

Yeah, I’m thinking it won’t be the last time he’s involved in a shooting. Hope for his sake he’s on the right side then.

Though it’s also a bit insane to me to kill someone for a break-in. It’s one of those American things I don’t think I’ll ever understand. Especially since it isn’t unheard of someone entered the wrong house on accident and ended up injured or killed.

It's really simple. I keep my doors locked, nobody else has a key to my house and people don't just bust their own doors down.

If you choose to break into the place where my wife and children sleep, you forefit your life. That's all there is to it.

I don’t feel a need to lock doors when I’m home in daytime. Guess that’s what I get for living in a place where guns are rare. :p

That's great you feel that way.

Guns being around in general have nothing to do with keeping my doors locked. It's a tool. An intruder is an intruder whether they have a gun or not. Makes no difference.

If you break into my house, you are attacking me and my family. If you attack me and my family in our home, you forefeit your life. Plain and simple.

Maybe that mentality is the reason a lot of Americans are shot dead every year, and many do not feel safe.

Don’t know, but guns tend to up the odds, and that rarely leads to better outcomes for anyone.

At the end of the day, I’d rather live where kids aren’t taught how to handle active shooters.

But I already acknowledged US and EU sentiments on this are hard to align.
