We've heard a whole range of reasons for why individuals are opposed to arming trained teachers in schools after President Trump suggested it as a way to stop would be school shooters. Some of those explanations have been a bit more irrational than others. For instance, Matt reported on MSNBC anchor Lawrence O'Donnell suggesting handgun bullets simply don't move fast enough to stop a gunman.
We now have this hot take from CNN Senior Law Enforcement Analyst Tom Fuentes, who argued Monday that women can't conceal carry because it would not work with their wardrobes. He used Sandy Hook Elementary, where 20 children and six adults were slain in 2012, as an example.
CNN Analyst: Women Can't Carry Guns, Because They Wear Skirts and Dresses
“Sandy Hook had an all-female faculty, from principal to teachers,” Fuentes said. “For a woman, where are you going to hide that gun during the day?”
"You can't put it in your desk drawer," he continued. "If you wear a dress, if you wear a skirt, you're going to have to wear a jacket every day, with a belt and a holster the way a detective on duty would do."
Female gun owners responded to Fuentes's "sexist" comments, informing him that there are other pieces of apparel in their closets than dresses and skirts.
Nothing sexist or denigrating in THIS statement by Tom Fuentes on CNN. Sir, have you ever heard of pants? They actually started making them for women a number of years back. We even use IWB holsters and everything??????@WellArmedWoman @USCCA@nrawomen #NRA#CCW pic.twitter.com/1Zd3SCml7r— ARMED and Feminine (@ArmedFeminine) February 25, 2018
Meanwhile, YouTube users informed Fuentes that the millions of women who have long had their concealed carry permits are by now well adept on how to use them.
"There are multiple holster options for women wearing dresses, but I would not expect someone who is obviously anti-gun to know this," one YouTube commenter wrote. "Also, do you think that a female teacher that chooses to be armed might decide to wear clothing that allows for more easily concealed carry? Or does he not think women are intelligent enough to make those decisions and only know how to wear dresses?"
And this comment from a YouTube user aptly named, concealcarrygirl.
"How mighty sexist of you!" she wrote. "My whole channel is about showing women how to conceal in any outfit, including dresses! You'd be surprised just how many women are walking around with a gun on their person. What a moron.?"
Google “caboose pistol”......

I used to have a quick release “belly pack” that had a holster in side. It was setup for either left hand pull cord/right hand pistol or vice versa. It was very fast access and worked quite well with my Beretta .380 Model 84F. Carried all over Disneyland, Disney World, and Universal studios several times and no one suspected a thing. It was a unisex accessory. Both my wife and I each had one.
They could always bring back the bustle... ;-)
think I’ll pass....and, I don’t “google”
Pfft...Women hardly wear dresses anymore. What a crock.
I’m not going to go into detail, but, I reckon there are places women can hide things. More than one.
It still amazes me just how vehemently ignorant they demand to be.
lol!
At first, I wasn’t sure if you meant the Hildabeast or Hiding Hilda.
Hiding Hilda does have some very nice CC bags:

The notion of being able to doge “slow” bullets is so ludicrous, I’m going to give the “analyst” the benefit of the doubt, and assume he meant something else.
Handgun (slow) bullets have about 1/3 of the kinetic energy of “assault rifle” (fast) bullets. That, combined with far better aiming characteristics, gives rifles a great advantage — except in close-quarters encounters (such as a school classroom). If the “analyst” was referring to kinetic energy, and effective range — than his remarks weren’t totally insane. They were just garden-variety stupid and biased.
‘CNN ANALYST’ is similar to roadkill vendor

Perfect! :)
My wife has been known to wear a “Can-Can” holster under her dress.
You can’t tell if she is carrying or not with it.
Flashbang Women’s Holster – Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 380
If your are looking for a gun holster bra, you cannot beat the quality of the Flashbang concealed carry bra gun holster. Flash bang holsters have basically become the industry standard in all bra holsters. Of course, as we mentioned above, it won’t be your best bet for running. If you want one good for running, you will want to the Undertech sports bra holster.
Women hardly wear dresses anymore.

Especially teachers.
Best Wedding reception I have ever been to was a Pig-Picking and skeet shooting affair in coastal North Carolina.
The Father of the Bride also had an old piano out in the field where we took turns shooting it with pistols and rifles.
Best was the Bride with an AR blasting that poor piano as she closed in on it.
So, women can’t be as powerful as men. Okey doke, CNN. Thanks for the update.
I motion that on FreeRepublic, for purposes of clarity, the spelling of the phrase “CNN Analyst” be officially changed to “CNN Analist.”
Any seconds?
