Meagan Good Wants Gun For Protection After L.A. Home Invasions – TMZ

Meagan Good wants to become a gun owner … and while she says she didn’t always feel that way, the recent rise of home invasions in Los Angeles changed her mind.

Meagan explained her change of heart in tonight’s interview with Charlamagne Tha God on his Comedy Central show “Tha God’s Honest Truth” … saying she would feel more comfortable with a gun after seeing home invasions on the rise in Hollywood.

The actress says she used to think she didn’t need a gun at home because there wouldn’t be time to grab the weapon if a situation arose … but now she says she wants to be able to at least have the option.

While Meagan says she doesn’t want to shoot or kill any potential home invaders … she says she is willing to defend herself with a gun.

Meagan’s fears are real.

TMZ broke the story … Clarence Avant‘s wife, Jackie, was shot and killed inside the couple’s Beverly Hills home Wednesday morning after at least one suspect made it inside during a home invasion robbery.

These cases are part of an alarming trend … in the days before Halloween, Dorit Kemsley had 3 men (shown above) storm into her bedroom to threaten her life before fleeing with six-figures worth of valuables.

It’s evening happening outside of homes … Terrence J told cops last month he was pulling into his driveway when another car pulled up and the men inside ordered him out of his car, firing shots and giving chase when he refused their commands and drove off.

Bottom line for Meagan … she’s embracing the 2nd Amendment.
