I totally agree with what you're saying. Putting me in your position as an American citizen, if i lived in a wood house with an easier to climb wood fence and fragile windows with no protection bars of course i will be willing to own a gun. I'm talking about a suburban area where neighbors are separated by yards, not stereotyping the way Americans live everywhere.
The best we can do here is to shut ourselves in as best as possible, have a low profile and organize a "neighborhood alarm" (basically help each other when a burglary alarm is heard). Having friends in the police helps too.
Reading various debates like this, i recall you all have been arguing with Europeans about "finding a way to get them anyway" too. However it looks like they don't have the same problem, at least not in the degree U.S.A. has it.
In resume and what i meant is everything is a matter of causes and consequences. Banning or controlling firearms in U.S.A. it basically impossible for today status. So there's no other choice but to live with it.
