If you’re a good gun owner, your guns are locked away in such a way that you can’t do proper home defense. Unless you’re walking around your house in underwear and a holster.
Thats only true if you have kids. There are no federal requirements for how you store your guns when not in use. If you dont have kids or strangers around, you can keep things like pistols on wall racks, loaded and ready to go. I for example, live way out in the sticks. If I call the cops, it takes a minimum of 20 minutes before anyone gets here. My nearest neighbors are also a couple miles away. So, if someone breaks in I have a 20 minute window with zero help. Call 911, then call .357
Fair point. But even in the city, cops are just there to document your losses after the fact. Unless you end up in a hostage situation, they’re not doing anything during the crime.
If you’re a good firearm owner, your firearms are secured from unauthorized access.
Plenty of ways to achieve that while keeping them readily accessible to the intended user for home defense, especially without children, housemates, or houseguests.
No they won’t.

Correct, so why even consider relying on them in the first place.
The Heller decision would like a word with you

Exactly, Jim Jeffries had a hilarious bit about it but that gave anyone who heard it the wrong idea about secure storage.
