Well, if you base your info on the newspaper of record(?!) that's one mistake. Possibly more women are coming to the realization that sometimes there may not be anybody else to rely on but yourself. It's called empowerment for you whiney momunists who would trade your freedom for a false sense of security. For the most part, knowledge beats ignorance.

If YOU don’t watch out for your own personal safety and well-being, who will?

It would seem that women can see a lot in themselves that is well worth defending. A good deal of personal grief can be avoided by taking a few preemptive steps.

Carrying personal armament is just simple prudence.

Women want to stand tall against all the threats towards their families: from the hordes flooding across the southern border to the thousands of “refugees” being relocated here by the regime, all Americans want an edge when the collapse comes.

With the takeover of our organs of government by metrosexuals the concern has exploded on the front pages about our government and society no longer being willing to protect its citizens. Of course law-abiding has become a meaningless phrase because with the criminalization of any exercise of free thought, we are all criminals. That is what happens when law and government depart from the morality of its citizens, law and morality based upon the judeo Christian tradition and our common law heritage. Apparently these foundations of our society are dispensable in our headlong rush to embrace a faith that has not regard for individual liberties and freedom.

Ironically, the liberals’ imasculation of men and urging of women to remain unwed and focused on their careers instead is a contributing factor to more women buying firearms.

Traditionally, women would rely on a man to protect them, but with so many single women who live and travel by themselves these days, it is not surprising that more of them are buying guns for protection.

The only problem I have is most women don’t take firearm ownership seriously. Most think of it as an accessory.

The way I look at it, one can never have too many guns. (I’m speaking of the law abiding, of course).

One can never have too much money or too many guns..

Add 1 additional female gun owner to the ranks. My 22 year old daughter just took ownership of a S&W 38 special snubbie.

Because women look hotter with guns.

My wife told me to buy another gun two months ago, and even suggested the particular one to buy. Thank you, dear.

Moms Demand Action? Real moms demand bolt action!

Lol! Many mothers, including myself, take our children’s safety seriously. That’s why we pack diaper bags and heat.

I just wonder how many Germans and other Euro countries being flooded by raping murdering scum are reading articles like this, just seething with jealousy knowing our women can go out and buy any gun they want and protect themselves.

I just love it when lefties realize the demise they have created for themselves. All those sheeple can do is run to one corner of the fence and wait to be slaughtered.

And the person promoting the slaughter is Time magazines favorite. But then again so was Hitler.

It is positively sickening to see how practically every discussion, debate, argument or statement today is always made with some sort of BS survey or statistical point made as a prerequisite for a lame attempt to scientistically legitimize the position being proffered. It is time for us all to refute this marxist-driven (that is, dialectical materialistic) propaganda technique as fundamentally dishonest and renders any such discussion based on this type of mendacity as without merit at the root, therefore unworthy of consideration.

Women have a clear choice to either protect themselves or be raped by Obama black lives matter supporters, liberals, or illegal immigrants. The logic thinking women will choose wisely.

Emily Miller wrote a book about the trials of getting a gun in Washington DC:


She's also taken her case to the mediots...

The other day I was headed to the range for some practice. As is often the case, I ask my wife of 45 years if she wants to come along. Well, after all these years I know the answer because she never has wanted to shoot even though she likes me being able to do so. She has always said she is scared of handling guns.

But this time, she said, "Yes, it's time!"...

Wow, that was a genuine shocker! After some table top instruction on basic handling, safety, and various "how to" mechanics, off we went.

At the range, it was her turn to be shocked. She really enjoyed it and was quite good at it after she finally got the hang of it!

Two days later, I wanted to head to the local gun store and check something out I was looking for and asked her if she wanted to go along. The answer is always, "No!". We always joke that it is like her asking me if I want to go along when she looks for shoes?

But not this time. She wanted to go along and maybe even look at some pistols. My selection in the safe is not really her cup of tea because she has some physical limitations I don't need to deal with.

Well, lo and behold, we got to the store and she was looking at all the offerings and found one she really liked and could easily handle. I said maybe we should talk and think about it a bit ( I don't usually make quick decisions on these matters). She said, Well then, why don't you just buy it for me for Christmas now?"

Well, what can one say to an request like that!?

Needless to say, Santa was very good to her this year. We will head out next week for some further instruction and practice.

Don't you just love a wonderful Christmas story?

All women activists on this issue at some point are harassed,” she said. “They try to publish your phone number and addresses,” she said of gun-control opponents.

As with attempts to publish the names of gun owners?
