The guns are all locked up in a safe and locked up in cases within the safe. I own them because it’s my right and I enjoy it. Don’t see much safety benefit though.

Like gun herd immunity. I actually explored this a little below.

If adequately trained, yes. Plinking ≠training.

If those with access to the gun are responsible and have firearm training, yes.

As a gun owner I would say my house is slightly less safe with my guns.

So many variables. I think it's a wash.

I am surprised so many vote the average American home is safer

I made this poll because of this exact thing. I thought it was pretty settled,

"what does exist points almost entirely to guns making homes less safe on (avg)"

Is there herd immunity when a criminal has more reason to believe you might be armed?

Yes, statistics back up the idea that there is herd immunity. If my neighbors

If that’s the case, the the correct answer may be the least chosen one.
