I’m standing in the flea market of firepower, a gun show at Cashman Center, listening to a salesman pitch the value of a solar-powered flashlight. “But how do you make it work?” I ask, and by “work,” I don’t mean create a beam of light. I’m already sold on that. I mean how do I make it do its semi-lethal thing, like stun someone with massive volts of electricity, or emit a stream of burning pepper spray, or turn into an easy-grip dagger—you know, defend me? “Oh no,” he says. “This doesn’t do any of that. But it does charge your cell phone with its stored-up energy.”
I like that. In fact, it’s probably one of the few items at the Crossroads of the West Gun Show I’d really use. But somehow it’s not getting much attention here, where hundreds of people—all sorts of people—are milling around tables stacked high with deadly device

Truer words were never written by an idiot.
In fact, just get your liberal dumb ass out of the gun show and find a man that can tolerate you enough to protect you.
You then won't need the gun, the laser sight or the flashlight.
Why can these dumb asses not just go about their business of writing about basket weaving or some such crap and quit trying to change the American landscape on guns?
They fail miserably and look really stupid doing it.
Okay, so I did read the screed this assclown wrote. What an idiot. Sadly, she is correct, despite her stupidity, she is NOT barred from owning a gun. She says hers is safely locked in the vault under her bed. Good luck with that sweetpea, you’re gonna need it.
The reporter needs to purchase a panty unwadder instead of a weapon.
“Or maybe I’m just better off with a solar-powered flashlight that also charges my cell phone, which calls 911.”
Yes Stacy you would be.

In other words, Free non sissified Americans.
It was, as usual, one of those “intrepid investigative reporter finds actual guns for sale at gun show” kinda things. More of a face/palm moment. Do they actually pay this idiot? Just one more reason to NOT subscribe to any lame stream dinosaur newspaper. Maybe her next report will uncover the fact that most cars out there use “actual gasoline”.
Just another fool that wakes up every morning and looks in the mirror and says to herself, “I’m so smart, I think I’ll share some of that with the lower caste of people today.”
Must be terrible to be so smart and come across as so stupid.
Her grave marker will be, When seconds counted the police were only minutes away. Oops!
“Or maybe I’m just better off with a solar-powered flashlight that also charges my cell phone, which calls 911.”
Mr. Bad Guy, wait till the sun comes up to charge my phone so I can call 911,
or
wait till I get the trigger lock off my gun?

I found this comment at the end of the article interesting. Could it be that possibility we have the Second Amendment because there is an inherent right of self defense that takes precedent over any form of government?
“I don’t carry a gun to kill people; I carry a gun to keep from being killed.”
“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 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 a whoopin’.”

Yes. The cops are only there to do the paperwork.
