The front page of today's Courant reports a home invasion in North Branford by 5 armed thugs:

Luckily, no shots were fired and nobody was seriously, physically injured. Now imagine if there was gunfire. What if the homeowner was forced to defend himself and his family with deadly force? Now image further that the homeowner had only 10 rounds to defend himself. Would you feel secure in that situation?
When the assembly considers another magazine limit bill, stories like this need to be trotted out as evidence that confrontation by multiple, armed attackers does happen and that 10 rounds would be woefully inadequate in such a situation.
This is why I keep 3 standard capacity magazines by my bedside, each fully topped off with 17 rounds.
