Woman Uses Her Gun To Ward Off Abduction
An Ohio woman who is licensed to carry a gun but had only recently started carrying one for protection put it to good use earlier this week.
Dinah Burns was out walking her dog, Gracie, on a path near an elementary school in Lancaster on Monday when two men approached her with a baseball bat and threatened to abduct her.

She should’ve unloaded it into the bastards, no doubt some of 0bama’s boys.
Look at previous posts before I do I must.
Now these perps are free to go and kidnap someone else. She should have unloaded on them!
ACCESS - INTENT - MEANS! (AIM) They had ACCESS to her - they had INTENT to do her harm - they had a instrument, or MEANS, to physically harm her.
Not in her job description. She protected herself and chose not to possibly mess up her life for the sake of future liberals who choose not to carry.
Probably a very good plan for her. There are others to take out the trash...
“She shouldve unloaded it into the bastards, no doubt some of 0bamas boys.”
I would have skipped the chit-chat with them entirely. If it’s serious enough to pull it it serious enough to shoot. A jury would never convict her.
Cool. "I don't have much money, but I will give you everything I got." BANG!
It will take double detergent to get the stains out of those shorts, sagging or otherwise..
Probably would have shot? Uh, no, lady, that’s not the correct response. You’re just very lucky they were wimps and had second thoughts. The next ones “probably” won’t be wimps and you’re going to waste valuable time talking to them.
Something sounds wrong with this. First, how odd that she refers to her attackers as “gentlemen”. Second, in that she described them as both white, but with little other description. Lancaster is 96% white, with just trace amounts of other races. It is also a university town.
This leads me to suspect one of two things: either she fabricated the whole thing; or that the men were not planning to rob or sexually assault her, but to murder her.
Bumping this thread to the top with the following we received via email today:
Why Grandpa Carried a gun
The Quintessential reason why Grandpa carries a gun. Please take time to read this and pay particular attention to “A Little Gun History” about half way down......staggering numbers!
Why Carry a Gun?
My old grandpa said to me ‘Son, there comes a time in every man’s life when he stops bustin’ knuckles and starts bustin’ caps; and usually it’s when he becomes too old to take an ass whoopin.’
I don’t carry a gun to kill people; I carry a gun to keep from being killed.
I don’t carry a gun to scare people; I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m paranoid; I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m evil; I carry a gun because I have
lived long enough to see the evil in the world.
I don’t carry a gun because I hate the government; I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m angry; I carry a gun so that I don’t have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.
I don’t carry a gun because I want to shoot someone; I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m a cowboy; I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a cowboy.
I don’t carry a gun to make me feel like a man; I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.
I don’t carry a gun because I feel inadequate; I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate.
I don’t carry a gun because I love it; I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.
Police protection is an oxymoron: Free citizens must protect themselves, because police do not protect you from crime, they just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.
Personally, I carry a gun because I’m too young to die and too old to take an ass whooping’! Author unknown (but obviously brilliant)
A LITTLE GUN HISTORY
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control: From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
With guns, we are ‘citizens’; without them, we are ‘subjects’
During WW II, the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED! Gun owners in the USA are the largest armed forces in the world!
If you value your freedom, please spread this anti gun-control message to all of your friends.
The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either.
SWITZERLAND ISSUES A GUN TO EVERY HOUSEHOLD!
SWITZERLAND’S GOVERNMENT ISSUES AND TRAINS EVERY ADULT IN THE USE OF A RIFLE.
SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!
IT’S A NO BRAINER! DON’T LET OUR GOVERNMENT WASTE MILLIONS OF OUR TAX DOLLARS IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE ALL LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS AN EASY TARGET.
I’m a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment! If you are too, please forward this. If youre not a believer, please reconsider the true facts. This is history; not the BS that’s being shown on TV, sanctioned by our illustrious leaders in Washington.
The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental.
