..."increase the risk of homicide of women by 500%." WTH! That's a new number to me. All this time I thought it was 120%. I'm sure they have plenty of backup data to verify these numbers. (sarc)

Moms are racist.

What about all the gun violence blacks endure?

((crickets))

Only one thing is clear. These Moms must be racist.

The number is whatever percentage they need to properly panic people into acting in the way they want.
It isn’t about the number, the real number doesn’t matter.
what matters to them is the end result.

80% of statistics are 300% bullspit.

99% of statistics from feminazis are 1000% bullspit.

So why doesn’t someone invent a gun that would know it is pointed at a woman and then would jam up? Problem would be with transgenders.

Maybe if the woman had a gun she could shoot the SOB who would try to rape or rob her.

In reality, the vast majority of men can win at whatever level of victory they choose in a physical confrontation against the average woman or against a women they choose to attack. When a woman chooses to arm herself, she is the equal of any man. I suspect a lot of liberals prefer the situation in which women are at the mercy of predators to that in which predators have to fear armed victims turning the tables on them.

Guns are the great equalizer. Limiting the access women currently have will not reduce violence against them. Quite the opposite.

These groups are so transparent.

HMMMMMM.... let’s see....... restrict ownership of guns making it harder (or outright illegal) for a law-abiding woman to own a gun as a means to defend themselves from violent attack.
...and this will make women safer.

hmmmm
hmmmm

But....

“Moms Demand”

Typical female bulls*it.

You’re supposed to be empowered women, go defend yourself against your mythical gun violence, and leave sane people alone.

If a criminal breaks into their home to kill their children, do you think these “moms” will call a shrink to talk to the thug about his feelings so that it will dissuade him and there will be hugs all around?

Or will she call a good guy with a gun?
