Kelley Paul, the wife of Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), described her increasing concerns for the safety of herself and her family amidst increasing calls from Democrats and the broader left to amplify politically motivated hostility towards Republicans. She offered her remarks in a Friday interview with Breitbart News Deputy Political Director Amanda House.
Weve updated all of our security systems at home. I sleep with a loaded gun by my bed. Im home alone a lot, obviously when Rand is [in Washington, DC], and so Ive got deadbolts all around my house so that if someones in my house when I go to bed Im deadbolted in three different levels, Paul told House.
Its bizarre. Ive never been like this in my whole life. We used to never even lock our doors, and now that has all changed. Even going out to dinner in D.C., last night, you worry. You hope that people arent going to come up and just start screaming at you.
Paul recalled a neighbor assaulting her husband outside their home in Bowling Green, KY, describing what she said is an increasingly politically polarized America. Her husband suffered broken ribs as a result of the attack, and the attacker was sentenced to 30 days of incarceration.
Words do matter, and there are so many, quite frankly, unhinged [and] unstable people out there, and when they hear someone on their side telling them, Get up in their face, they take that literally, and they think that gives them a license to be very aggressive, be harassing, throw people out of restaurants, and I dont think anybody wants to live in a country like that, Paul continued.

Memories of a great song and album. I never could have been a SCOTUS nominee. Lol!
I dont sleep with a loaded gun next to me. My tactical shotgun is kept (loaded) in the closet about 5 feet away. I do keep it in a gun bag just to make sure my black lab doesnt cause any mischief.
Ballsey to tell someone in their own home that they are a SOB and lay down the law with a gun.
That effing witch Hillary... She and her goons are using mob level intimidation.
Guess we've figured out why democrats upped the violence to mob level intimidation.
"Hey shop owner, it'd be really sad if your business burned down...best to pay the protection money... we want 'peace' in the neighborhood, right? How soon until Kelley Paul asks her husband to resign - move home... That IS the end game of democrat thugs... is's why they've upped the violence.
Assuming it fires. XDs have a litany of small problems and I’ve yet to see one survive a class. Granted, I’ve only taken 3 courses, but I’ve yet to see an instructor who has seen one finish a course. Not a high round count weapon. 2000-3000 rounds in, you’re gonna have problems.
It’s pretty though, and I’m way digging the suppressor. I’ve been thinking about getting into the suppressor game for a while now.
Doesn't everyone?
“Doesn’t everyone? “
Nope!
.
She should not have said that she is often alone in the house.
“Rand Pauls Wife: I Sleep with a Loaded Gun Thanks to Leftists Threats”
So do I... it’s a big club :)
Yep - wife has her .30 in the bed-stand and my side has a 9mm and .357 in it....
Ive had a loaded gun next to my bed for years.
The left has lost their minds (if they actually had them in the first place)”””
Mrs Paul- I am sorry for your current situation, due to the Left in the USA.
However, WELCOME to the status many of us here in the country have been living with for many years. I left So Calif over 25 years ago,and I had a gun there. Needed it-—prowlers all hours of the night & day.
Lived rural in N Calif for 16 years. Had local (lived at the end of my road) known drug dealer COME ONTO MY PROPERTY 7 THREATEN ME...and pulled shotgun out from inside doorway to drive him off. WAS READY TO SHOOT TO KILL HIM.
Don’t have to live rural here in the USA to feel the need to protect yourself. The deputies can only be in so many places at any given time. IF I needed a deputy, I would be lucky to see one in less than 20 minutes. ALOT can happen to me in 20 minutes.
WHY do any of US think that the Dems want to get our guns & ammo before they can gear up into even more attacks on us???
The right to self protection is one of our most valuable and important rights.
Those who don’t exercise that right should consider it in this day and age of crazies everywhere.
Maybe, but Id prefer the instant gratification of watching them scream like banshees while my Dobes had a little fun with them.

I sleep with a loaded gun even without leftist threats. There are bad people out there, folks and they want you dead. Act accordingly.
JoMa
I sleep with a loaded gun because, an unloaded gun is damn near useless.
:) lol. You are my kind of freeper.
A revolver would probably be the best choice to put under your pillow or in your nightstand.
