Xers and Millies have not granted boomers consent to implement these ideals. The Boomer must respect the law and remain within the bounds of the constitution. Boomers like yourself might have an opinion that a person buying multiple guns is the wrong thing to do, but that is just that, an opinion. The citizen is well within his rights to buy as many guns as he/she likes. The purpose of the state is to enforce the law, not implement a vague "morality".
A crook must have real dedication to committing a crime to risk a mauling by the top predator in much of the human world. One would need a plan to neutralize the dog, something that people in Special Forces learn as a norm. But most crooks don't have military training. The military doesn't want criminals, people generally not amenable to the discipline of a pure command system.
A dog may be Man's best friend, but he is a criminal's nightmare. Domestication has made the dog predictable enough despite having the usual traits of man-eaters on land. When I describe an animal having power, speed, strength, agility, cunning, voracity, sharp claws and teeth, and great bite force do I refer to a cougar -- or to a dog? Or four 80-pound Dobermans and one 320-pound tiger, as dogs attack as gangs?
If you face an enemy capable of dispatching your dogs before getting to you, then you must have done something to cause something like the Mossad or Seal Team 6 to plan your demise.
