You can protect your bedroom. Congrats. I can protect my entire neighborhood and more if needed.
Being ex-military has fuck all to do with this topic. I'd bet that I can out shoot you, and most any other GFYer, with pretty much any modern gun...And I have no military background. And I'm not talking out my ass. Enough GFYers have been to the range with me to vouch for this. Did I mention that I also build my own gas guns, bolt guns, and 1911's as well as own 2 firearms related businesses?
No, you don't need to be "super trained" to shoot somebody at 20 feet but most people can't consistently hit any vital areas at that distance on stationary targets while standing, let alone hitting moving targets while laying in bed in a dark room and half asleep.
I'll bet all 16 round you keep in your mag are the same right? Unfortunately the military doesn't teach you any better.

What the hell are you talking about? You said you don't carry a gun to avoid a fight, you carry it to resolve some situation where a madman is shooting up some place in public. You also pointed out that people who only have a gun in the house for protection in case of a break-in are more dangerous than these weird-ass survivalist nutballs that carry guns in public. I pointed out that situation one is about as likely as winning the lottery, or less so. Your second hypothesis is just ridiculous.
I shot 38 out of 40 human silhouettes for an expert rating in the US Army. Whether you can shoot better than me or not doesn't really matter, because I can definitely hit some fuck sneaking around in my house, as can just about anyone at close range. I also don't need hollow point cop killers to stop the crackhead who just jimmied my back door.
See, it's shit like that that makes gun fanatics so dangerous. Carrying around a 9 on your ankle and a .45 in your waistband loaded with hollow points, just waiting for somebody to fuck with you. That may not apply to you personally, but it applies to probably about 95% of these guys. They carry those guns in case of road rage. Or in case some black dude disrespects them in a mall. A chickenshit gun nut walking around mad at the world who thinks the govt. and Mexicans are out to get them is just about the most dangerous individual to have walking our streets I can imagine.
