I completely identify with this story. I am in my late seventies and haven't fired a weapon since I was in ROTC in college, let alone own one. But after a news report of a home invasion in my town yesterday, I bought a VP9 and will soon become a gun owner for the first time in my life. When the left lies about crime rates and criminals and tries to take away the police; when the left tells you it is too dangerous to be armed and tries to take away your gun; when there is no one to protect you in the seconds of life and death decisions and actions during a home invasion, what are you to do? The only reliable answer is to defend yourself, with lethal force if necessary. I already took a couple of gun safety classes but was still ambivalent about gun ownership until a couple of Chilean illegal aliens broke into an occupied home a couple of nights ago. The man of the house used his pistol and killed one of the invaders. He is psychologically impacted by having done this, but he and his wife are still alive. It is a tradeoff worth making, IMO.
