Security systems you can wipe your ass with them. Make sure you advertise the brand on your house so they know to cut the phone wire before kicking the door in. How many times has it happened, once is too many.

Not a weak argument. I don't know anyone who advocates using guns on a mid night intruder who has actually faced that situation and used their gun in a way that was effective for defense. However, I know several people who have faced that situation and their guns were useless because, as responsible gun owners, they had their guns and ammunition properly stored. And, I know one person who had their gun loaded and handy and the intruder strong armed it away and used it on them.

Sounds like you don't know much about what is available in home security technology these days.
