Man gets robbed at gun point trying to buy vintage cards on ebay

For all those who own a gun, or a small arsenal of weapons, I have a question:

If somebody broke into your home, do you actually think you might try to shoot him to protect yourself? Because if I owned fifty guns and someone broke into my home to take my stereo or TV, I would just tell them to take it. I know it is everyone's constitutional right to bear arms, but if you shoot somebody (not to mention he may shoot you first) your life will probably never be the same. It just seems that many people who carry guns will never actually use them, even under difficult circumstances.

I know the standard response is "I will do anything to protect my family" but I doubt they are coming to get your kids, they are just looking for something to sell. Who is actually going to pull the trigger for that?
