    12% of women own guns. That was what I read.

    Men who are going to sex robots are the type who would be worthless in bed with a real women, so that's description of a female is what they chase down and hope are disarmed.

    I don't see anything wrong with that.

    ...so long as you're not advocating that those 'less sharp tools' have their rights restricted.

    Well, that's up to all of us. If the price isn't too high, ok. If we think the cost is too great, not ok.

    The problem is, those "less sharp tools" are actually some of the best trained firearm owners in the U.S. and the least to commit any type of firearm violation.

    Anyone who would make a comment as such, is totally out of touch with the reality of firearm ownership and the training firearm owners voluntary, as their expense, put themselves through.

    Is there any particular, legitimate reason for why women should not actually be getting involved with firearms? Any reason that is not the hypothetical argument that a woman can have her firearm taken away from her and have it be used against her by her assailant?

    Safety should be your number one priority not confidence. The last thing we need is a bunch of overconfident people with guns running around.

    "Christy Salters Martin is a professional boxer and the owner of a concealed carry permit. But when she attempted to leave her husband, she was shot with her own gun. Today, she cautions other women against making the same mistake. 'Just putting a weapon in the woman’s hand is not going to reduce the number of fatalities or gunshot victims that we have. Too many times, their male counterpart or spouse will be able to overpower them and take that gun away.'....

    "A recent meta-analysis concluded what many people already knew: the availability of firearms is a strong risk factor for both homicide and suicide. But the study came to another conclusion that is rarely mentioned in the gun control debate: females are uniquely impacted by the availability of a firearm. Indeed, the study found that women with access to firearms become homicide victims at significantly higher rates than men."

    You made the assertion; pulled the number from the dark side, offering nothing to back it up.

    You claiming it's incorrect? Anything to back that up, or are you just pulling it out of your a$$?

    I instruct for CCLs, since starting three years ago and keeping records, we found growing women’s participation increased from 13.6% to nearly 27%, an increase that prompted us to add female instructors, have ladies only range nights accompanied by women developing their own well attended related activities. I know many, including both my girls that carry. So, yes, I doubt your baseless figures that follow along with your obvious anti woman bias.

    Sure, that's not very difficult:


    Why would you want to put women at risk of getting killed? Are you a misogynist?

    I believe a woman has the right to chose what she wants for herself just as any man. We are all equal under the law and the principles of liberty and rights under our Constitution applies to all regardless of gender, race, ethnicity. How is that being misogynist? Enlighten me.

    Maybe you have trouble reading. Lets try again:

    Why do you want to increase the odds of a woman getting killed? Are you a misogynist?

    It’s not up to me to decide. Women... men, should educate themselves and be free to make their decisions as they will. If someone wants training on anything, firearm related or not, and I have some skill to share, I will share what I know. But, I don’t tell people what to do and I encourage learning from as many sources as possible. I share my knowledge across a number of subjects and learn from others, including women, willing to share knowledge with me.

    that's like someone claiming you are a convicted felon and demanding you claim you are not. It doesn't work that way

    If you want to be part of arming a woman, which could, in turn, put her at risk, that's up to you. I know better. I'll let her decide without any input, influence, or training, from me. But then again, I like women, maybe you don't.

    Sure you do, barefoot, and helpless with you making the call on their safety. I prefer them as equals and in charge of their own destiny.

    Ever notice how female kickboxers/fighters marry insanely muscular husbands?

    It's like, they're already so tough strong and muscular that when it comes to finding a more masculine husband they really have to take it to the max.

    I see you're having that reading problem again.

    But do keep putting them at risk. After all, it's no risk to you.
