Ruger is a Girl's Best Friend
George Magazine ^ | August 1999 | Ann Coulter

Posted on 06/08/2022 7:00:26 AM PDT by Mean Daddy

“Murder Capital” - the richly deserved nickname for the nation’s capital. I won’t belabor my cunning and completely fortuitous escape, except to say that for the few minutes I was standing there waiting to be mugged, I was fuming. I knew he knew I didn’t have a gun.

It’s illegal here in Murder Capital. Not merely illegal, but a felony carrying up to a five-year prison sentence. Just as I could look at my prospective mugger and see that he was not the kind of fellow who would be a fanatic about property rights, he could see from fifty yards that I was not the type to be casually committing felonies.

Old article and I've cooled to Ann after her anti-Trump tirades but its still a good message. My son lives in Arlington, VA and it took him close to a year to get a permit, but to get one in DC is near impossible. One of his best friends was a Secret Service agent so when they were together, at least one of them was armed.

The real kicker is that is she HAD used a gun to protect herself, she may very well have faced a longer prison sentence than her attacker.

Yeah, agree...she went off the deep end for some reason. She always likes to 'rattle the cage' with her often overblown sentiments:

But we can’t have a world without violence, because the world is half male and testosterone causes homicide. A world with violence - that is to say, with men - but without weapons is the worst of all possible worlds for women.

Yeah, thanks but no thanks...

True. I have a Concealed Carry permit in my home state of Maryland, as well as permits in other states, and attempted to get one for DC. Nope. Thankfully I almost never have to journey in to that district.

She claims, “..as along as there are men, there will also be violence”, not knowing women are FAR more violent, mean, and nasty.

Re: Quote from Ann Coulter in Post 6: "As long as there are men, there will also be violence."

The absolute gall of Ann Coulter to ignore violence by women and to also blame all men for violence.

She's a sick, sick hypocrite.

Women aren’t violent as often as men. But let me tell you, as a retired prison officer when they are Katy bar the door.

“Women aren’t violent as often as men”

Domestic violence calls for police officers says otherwise.

The P series are good centerfire pistols. The P90 was Ruger's first attempt at a .45 ACP pistol, to compete with SIG Sauer's P220.

I may be out of line here but I don’t think she’s holding a Ruger in the pictures.

My wife carries a Lady Smith Model 60. 5 shot 357 magnum stainless steel revolver. If it didn’t have the girly name, I’d be carrying it. [I know you can get Model 60s without the name, but they’re like hens’ teeth]

I own a Ruger American 9mm and have been very happy with it.

My favorite .357 Magnum revolver:

Ruger 6" GP100. It's a tank.

The murder rate of men is 6 to 7 times that of the murder rate of women.

Fun fact, however: child abuse is much more liable to happen from the mother than the father.
