    Some people who carry guns for self-defense would flee a mob attacking their home?

    I was in a discussion about this and very surprised to hear the number of guys that advocated fleeing their home should the unlikely but highest-stakes event occur of a mob attacking their home.

    I advocate fleeing anywhere if possible except ones own home. Can you save your home and lives short term? Of course you can. Might they come back later to finish the job when your gone or in jail should you be arrested? Sure.

    But flee your home and let it be ransacked and burned while the insurance company may or may not pay up?

    F-that! I think it's a hill worth dying / killing on. Family included.

    Thoughts?

    I don't think a building is worth my life or the lives of my family.

    It's not the building. If they can run you out of your home, they can run you out of ANYWHERE.

    Not completely true. If it's a battle I know I can't win, I would choose to live and fight another day.

    If I die fighting for it, knowing it's a losing battle, what exactly have I accomplished? Now they have killed me and destroyed my home.

    I'll stay and kill so many of them that they wont try it on anyone else's home and if their aint 50 of them, they wont get mine, either. When you kill 10 in 3 seconds, the rest flee.
