Notice the gray hair of most of those installing it. They're aiming this at the elderly. I have read many news articles of such folks being robbed in their homes by young punks, usually drug addicts looking for cash or goods to feed their addictions, but I don't see this as the solution.
Why do they have the shotgun pointed towards the head of the bed? If you're in a 'I'm in my bed and I need my gun NOW" you want the barrel of the weapon pointed *away* from you and presumably *towards* the intruder.
And the pictured user is an older person... THAT'S IT! They're really selling the idea that old people should shoot themselves in their bed! :-P
