I'm not saying a shotgun is a poor choice for home defense. It's a fantastic choice, but there are drawbacks, and anyone choosing the shotgun needs to be aware of those. If it's the only thing you keep in your home for self defense, well, that is entirely your choice. Just be aware of those limitations. If they don't concern you, fine. Your house, your life, your loved ones. The rest of us will keep that handgun handy in the nightstand, even if there is a shotgun (or rifle) in the closet.
