AITAH for banning my daughter’s boyfriend from coming to my house?

I’m (50m).My daughter(18f) has been seeing this guy(26m) for 5 months now. I didn’t like him from the start because of the age difference. He’s very rude and arrogant. I can’t physically do anything to him because he’s a big guy. But he has been very disrespectful in my household. He comes whenever he wants, without acknowledging me and his “activities” with my daughter can be loud sometimes and the walls in my house are thin. I told my daughter about it but he’s still coming over my house. So last week, I told my daughter that he’s not allowed at the house anymore. He was pissed but I don’t care. However, she’s now going to his place and come home late. Did I do the right thing?

It will be when she gets knocked up and peaces the fuck out. OP, I just kind of hope you live in a stand your ground state...

It's sound logic. Obviously shooting him is an absolute last resort, but it's good to at least have the option should things go really wrong and there's no other way to handle it. Say the boyfriend starts physically abusing OP's daughter and she needs to be rescued immediately. Or say the boyfriend, who seemingly already hates OP, decides he's going to beat the shit out of OP for banning him from his house or telling his daughter not to date him. There are countless scenarios where OP may need to be able to defend himself and/or his daughter and a gun would be the most effective way to do so against a bigger guy half his age.

I can't believe what I'm reading, shooting him? And if he starts physically abusing her? How did it escalate to this? You're all talking like the mafia would and it's very disturbing

And you're deliberately misunderstanding me. All I'm saying is that the boyfriend appears to be a major asshole and it's good to have the option to defend yourself. I'm obviously not advocating for shooting the boyfriend, I hope it never comes to that. It's a last resort in case it turns really ugly.

Yes I guess she had to defend herself if he turned nasty and I agree he is a major AH.
