Breitbart Big Government ^ | 16 Jun 2014 | by AWR HAWKINS

On June 16 gun control activist Gabrielle Giffords said gun control is a women's issue and one on which women should "lead the way."

Giffords was speaking to Hearst Corporation employees in Manhattan.

According to New York Daily News, Giffords spoke of how "dangerous people with guns are a threat to women." She said, "Criminals with guns, stalkers with guns, abusers with guns... make gun violence a women's issue."

Giffords stressed that women can lead the way "through common sense."

A conservative federal judge was murdered at that event in Tucson. He should have been armed.

Even the March hare knew, “Say what you mean.”
“Gun control”= firearms confiscation.
We know you mean what you say, so say what you mean “Gabby.”
One thing leads to another.

About one half of the women who are murdered in the USA are murdered by Black males.

Non-Hispanic white males in the USA murder women at just a slightly higher rate than white males in Europe.

I see...

If those men didn’t have guns women would be able to defend themselves and the outcome would be different...

On some other planet...

If you want the outcome to be different, arm the women. That’s the only thing that changes the balance of power.

A women's issue? Sorry, here in Singapore gun control is a girls' issue: A competent 14-yr-old demonstrating the gun control that has just won her a bronze medal. They start out on air rifles and pistals, and graduate to the real thing at 18.

So, of course, do the boys. Incidentally, the Singapore Rifle Association, founded in 1862, is the oldest sporting club in the country. Its motto is "accuracy, discipline, marksmanship".

My question is how are all those gang bangers going to make any money if they can’t shoot their competitors who are forcing themselves into their market? How are those gang bangers going to line the pockets of those politicians if they can’t make some money?

They don’t call them gang bangers for nothing.

No.
It's a Constitution-hating-leftist's issue not limited at all by gender.

Just seems like overkill. I mean, if the first half dozen dont kill the moose, it’s going to be pretty pissed.

Mice are a woman’s issue too......along with bugs.

Why doesn’t Gabby-Gabby join the fight over these threats to women too?

Man, it’s a pity that Gabby is brain-damaged.


Just like all Democrats who have drank the liberal cool-aid.
