You were suggesting an armoured vehicle as a way to defend my home from lightning and meteor strikes? And how would that work exactly? Would I park my house inside my car at night instead of the other way around?

Funny how anti-gun people immediately assume it's all about them.

Let me restate, since you clearly tripped right on over the main point of my earlier statement in your rush prove your intellectual and moral superiority to the rest of us.

"How an individual chooses to define "prepared" is up to the individual. Some live in houses with bars on the windows and doors. Others own guns, or bright outside lighting. Some do less, others do more."

Definitely hit a nerve. Sorry about that. Go shoot something, you'll feel better.

I understood it as a means of being safe outside your house.

Yeah, that's exactly how I understood it as well.

Yes, but I didn't interpret it as a threat towards you. Just as a statement that there is no 100% safety, neither with guns nor without.
To add my 2c, I'm quite happy about our strict regulations regarding gun ownership here. We have very few people being killed by guns. On the other hand, I can understand that a country like the US can't be made gun free anymore. It's too deep in their culture and the country is already flooded with weapons so there is hardly a way to really reverse things.

Sure, if that makes you feel safer. Seems rather silly to me, but what do I know? I'm just some upstart colonial with a gun and an apparently uncontrollable urge to use it.

No nerves hit here. I'm just curious as to how, yet again, you've managed to cleverly avoid speaking about that point of my statement with yet another ad hominem attack.
