Sorry about last week folks! I was down for the count. I was invited to take part in a Press Conference by the Lake County Sheriff's Department! WHAT AN HONOR!!

Here are the You Tube to prove it!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBE__Od8rgM

Anyway, With times being what they are in America, there is NO better time for women to learn how to shoot.

FR Gun Club Ping!

[Carley]

And don’t forget that brilliant decision to put a sign in your window saying GUN FREE ZONE

[Manly Warrior]

From your moniker-I take it you are actually in Chicago? I hope not.

Anyway, great article-it should be sent to all of our not-like Sarah Palin lady friends and acquaintance's, they are the ones that need this type of information.

Well done.

I suggest you submit this to your local paper as an editorial article-just maybe someone will print it and some otherwise un-aware person, male or female, will be influenced by it.

God Bless and MOLON LABE!

I remember when there was a serial rapist on the loose in Orlando, FL. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department offered free shooting classes for women and there was a huge turnout. The rapes stopped.

“Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound.” — L. Neil Smith

Some say I am selfish -- that I am putting my life above that of the criminal

Ah, liberalism - kill babies, but protect criminals above citizens.

Many guys feel a kinship with Sarah. I joined NRA (first time) shortly after hearing of her selection.

[JDoutrider]

All Women Folk should be armed!

(Well most of you anyway!)

Bullseye!

Some say I am lazy -- that if I "really" cared about self-defense, I'd go learn Karate. I say: I am disabled, and I have a RIGHT to be able to defend myself ADEQUATELY against an attack!

Gender is irrelevant. It's an issue of disparity of force: being attacked because the attacker believes s/he is physically superior. Equalization (or better yet, role reversal) for the underdog is crucial for survival. Thing is, the reality of the disparity may not be obvious - and being chosen for the apparent disparity may result in suffering from an even more extreme actual disparity.

I'm a pretty normal & healthy looking male. If chosen for, say, a mugging it would most likely be because the perp thinks he can at least threaten/cause enough harm to get me to comply (probably via knife or other weapon). Thing is, I'm on blood thinners: if injured to the point of bleeding, I could easily "bleed out" in a hurry. Ergo, if attacked, I have to stop that threat _fast_; playing "scratch him with your keys" or "be a man, use your fists" games doesn't cut it. My "disability" is far from obvious, but that doesn't mean I should do anything less than "extreme prejudice": "adequte defense" isn't enough to satisfactorally prevent that short step to eternity.

As some wag put it, "if you're in a fair fight, you're doing it wrong."

Life member greetings...welcome aboard!

Ahhh, nothing like the sound of a big bore round being chambered into the breech to scare away intruders in the dark...kachink, just to get their attention! And then yell out:

DON'T MOVE OR YOU'RE DEAD!

[Lurker]

Good on you ma'am!
