There is a tale of a woman who kept a loaded gun next to the bed—just in case—but she didn't survive mistaking it for her asthma inhaler.
There's a reason we pay professional police and soldiers to do the protection and defence thing.
Best weapon to keep under bed in case of home invasion?

while it could work, it is slow and clumsy and still in the trunk of my car without the string on it. might be effective if i threw it at whomever.
I keep my guns unloaded and I don't keep any ammunition in my home. I prefer not to have any at all--I just buy what I need and use it up, mostly. If I do wind up with anything left over I keep it in a lock box in the storage locker in the car park of my building.
I throw parties now and then, and the guns always become a topic of conversation, since they are hanging on the wall. Now I don't think even roaring drunk that I would ever do anything stupid with a gun, but I don't ever want to find out the hard way that I'm wrong, or worry that some chucklehead will find the keys to the trigger locks, or whatever, so I'm much more comfortable simply not having any ammunition here.
Unless your life is in immanent danger you would be looking at criminal charges. Also almost certainly civil suit.
