In my post, the woman did not know the apt building was on fire,

Given even one gun in a home, especially with children present,
the odds are much higher for an accidental/unintended shooting
than for an illusionary "NRA-stand-your-ground" defense.

No new prisons, just legalize pot and there'll be plenty of room.

Despite your verbal gymnastics, the LAW says defense.

Who better to defend against a gun attack than the Secret Service guarding the POTUS? And who couldn't do it?

Guns are no defense against guns.
