Biden's home defence advice: buy a shotgun

February 20, 2013


Afraid in your homes ladies? Don't buy a machine gun - just get a shotgun and fire a warning shot from your balcony.

That's the advice from US Vice-President Joe Biden, who has told Americans that a few blasts of a shotgun is ample for self defence, as part of his push for White House gun reforms.

"If you want to protect yourself get a double-barrelled shotgun," Mr Biden said, on a Facebook forum hosted by Parents Magazine, as he related advice he once gave to his wife Jill, as their home in Delaware was in a secluded area.

"'Jill, if there is ever a problem, walk out on the balcony, flick that double-barrelled shotgun and fire two blasts outside the house'."
