My wife's cousin was killed when he broke into a guy's apartment and attacked him with a knife. I remember as a kid living in Cleveland and my dad woke up to find a person trying to break thru a window. He shouted for our mom to get the pistol. He did not have one, but the robber fled when he heard that. There are other family stories I could share. Some people are lucky or lived all their lives in pretty safe neighborhoods.
