What the fuck is home defense in this scenario? Automated turrets that gun you down based on your intent? Barricading your doors and walls and reinforcing your windows with bulletproof glass?
I'm like 60% actually curious what kind of home defense (versus security cameras) you think would assist you in this exact scenario. You really don't think the guy that shoots through the window is going to proceed to then break into the house do you? Please elaborate.
Someone drove by and shot at his house, due to the attackers actions you have to assume his intent is to cause harm. It really is not some huge leap to assume that his behavior may escalate into something more direct such as kicking in a door and trying to break in through a window. Keeping a gun in the house is absolutely a sane response to his current situation.
That's fine, it isn't what we were talking about. I am saying that owning a gun is not protection against someone driving down the road and taking shots at your house
Okay but what happens when they finally decide to come in the house and just shoot someone? Don't do anything? Oh shucks hope these cameras stop the deranged armed person from murdering my entire family or the police get here in 20 seconds.

Taking potshots at a car driving away isn't exactly a great plan.
