True. Now all we have to do is train some of the Senior Citizen women how to shoot and then supply them with appropriate armament.
I'm not sure of a solution for car to car shootings.

Gunmen spray bullets into car on freeway
I have one. But it wouldn't be pc, don'tchaknow.
Boy howdy....ALL women should know how to shoot. But a 96 year old in her BACKYARD? Broad daylight? Good grief.....
I love it when they "ask for the public's assistance" in apprehending suspects but dog gone it...they don't describe the color of skin, hair length or anything else.
One of my and my husband’s favorite movie scenes/lines is from L.A. Story:
Trudi: He said it’s the first day of spring.
Harris: Oh !@#$! Open season on the L.A. freeway!
Trudi: Do bullets go bad?
Harris: No, it’s not like milk. They don’t have expiration date or anything.
[Trudi is loading a gun]
Harris: Don’t point it at me!
Trudi: Sorry, I don’t know gun etiquette.
I would be funnier if it weren’t so true.
