You have some good points kane...but in everyday real life, most folks are not gonna have their guns unloaded and in a safe.
Also, when robberies happen it isn't always a fast in and out. People have their safes ripped out of floors and out of walls too. Happens all the time.
As for a gun safe...it's not like a small safe. It's shaped like a gun case...a big, tall rectangle.
In order to secure something like that would basically require you to spend thousands of dollars to have your home renovated and anchor that monstrosity in concrete...and even then they can break into it.
There is nothing that you own in your home that can't be stolen, no matter what you do.
And your last point about being forced to prove that you have a safe storage place...that would totally be struck down as unconstitutional.
It would deny a large percentage of people the ability to own a gun (not saying that's good OR bad....just pointing out it would be unconstitutional)
Right now, as the 2nd amendment has been interpreted throughout our history by the Supreme Court...the govt. has no power to stop it's citizens from owning a gun.
I personally don't believe in disarming citizens. BUT, if the majority of people wanted to have the country disarmed (which they don't)...then the only way to do it is via repeal of the 2nd amendment.
Then congress would be free to enact any and every hoop they want you to jump through...or just ban guns altogether.
Anything and everything else is technically unconstitutional.
