Both of you do not get my point.

Seeing that gun possession is a crime here, people do not have guns in their homes. This means that burglars are not armed.

I was burglarized last year and was face to face with the guy. He pushed my aside and ran for it. No guns.

I can understand that coming from the US where most people have a gun in their house, a burglar will shoot quickly.

Here it is not the case.
