A drunk guy attacked a STRANGER–the WRONG stranger–for having pride flags on his porch. Even if this stuff is less common than in the past, it’s far from gone.
I’m guessing if Wolfe said “Get off my property or I’ll shoot you” it might have deterred Jones more than a baseball bat. Maybe not, but the gun still gives you an edge if/when it comes to a fight.
As others have said, if you believe the dangers of a gun in your home outweigh the benefits, then by all means don’t own one. I just don’t think it’s “terrible” advice to own a gun and keep it in a safe location.
The danger of a gun FAR outweighs the vanishingly rare outliers where a gun is helpful. There is no question about this. Only fevered gun-fondlers can manage to confuse themselves on this issue. It’s very very clear.
