Sweet mother of all that is sacred...A PRO-2nd AMENDMENT GROUP IN OREGON! Man, I feel a bit dizzy...my left arm is starting to tingle, too. It's a good thing to see some folks with common sense up here--and we need more gun owners, too. People up here are such wusses when it comes to firearms...

There are a LOT of pro-gun folks in Portland. I lived there for 8 years, ending in 1996. And yes, it's a "shall issue" state.

It's also a very liberal state, in a lot of ways, but somehow the gun people have kept that part right.

The local TV stations take on this has been making me really angry. They claim that pro-gun groups are "arming women" or arming victims of domestic abuse. This does not "arm" women. It is up to the individual woman to arm herself. What these classes do is teach the women how to defend themselves with a firearm and the legal ramifications for doing so.

"More guns in these types of situations is flat-out dangerous," said Stacy Heyworth, head of the Multnomah County district attorney's domestic violence unit.. She further added, "What is wrong with the old-fashioned tried and trued method of burning your spouse with gasoline - guns will only lead to a tradjedy".

WOW! I am pleasantly surprised by this!
It is long past time that this subject is taken seriously by someone besides the victim!
Now these coward men will think twice before showing up tormenting a rootin' tootin' gun totin' female!
