Hey dweeb, guns are cool for hunting. Guns are also okay if you actually need them because you're a stigmatized minority like how gays, trans, and Jews are being attacked right now. Guns aren't cool for shooting down Esther for accidently walking into the wrong house because of her dementia. Guns aren't cool if it makes you afraid of literally everyone who walks in front of your fucking Ring camera.

Who was raped in your story? The woman woke up to someone already in her room? When exactly would she have been able to pull a gun?

Stop being afraid of your imaginations.
