If we think to ask "what did Jesus say to do when your group is attacked physically?", and if someone wants an actual narrow specific answer in a verse, then I think the best thing is to ask the person to consider and think about Matthew 7:12. ... To ask, what is just defense and what does it look like.
Isn't there too much faith in using guns? The wording is that guns are a "right"....
But this below is more real:
The murder of Renisha McBride, a 19-year-old black female teenager, occurred on November 2, 2013, in Dearborn Heights, Michigan, United States. Renisha McBride crashed her car while intoxicated at a street in Detroit, and then walked to a neighborhood in Dearborn Heights where she knocked on the door of a house. The homeowner, Theodore Wafer, shot McBride with a shotgun. Wafer contended that the shooting was accidental and that he thought his home was being broken into after he heard her banging on his door at 4:42 in the morning.[2]
...
Wafer was convicted of second-degree murder on August 7, 2014,[4] and received a sentence of 17 to 32 years in prison.
Murder of Renisha McBride
A response to hearing Matthew 7:12 can be to just to think on it, and think "yes" or "Amen!"
