During the August 23 airing of Third Rail on Al Jazeera, the executive director of New Yorkers Against Gun Violence, Leah Gunn Barrett, suggested women are too weak to be allowed to carry guns for self-defense on college campuses.
She made this suggestion in the face of Florida state Representative Rehwinkel Vasilinda (D-9th), although Vasilinda was the victim of attempted rape while in collegean attempted rape that she was able to stop by grabbing the gun her father had given her for self-defense.
Vasilinda made clear she wants to see Florida pass laws opening the door for women on campuses today to be similarly armed for self-defense.
Barrett responded to Vasilinda by claiming college campuses are some of the safest places in the nation and asking why we would want to change that by allowing law-abiding women to carry guns for self-defense. Barrett then made clear that she would never allow her daughter, who is a sophomore in college, to attend a school where women and other law-abiding citizens are allowed to carry guns for self-defense.

No way . . . look at the fear on that child's face!
“These are the same people that want women in the special forces?”
Freaks like Barrett would not want any Army at ALL, just hug your local jihadist and tell him you understand him /s She should talk to the two women who just completed Ranger training and explain how weak and incapable of armed self defense women are! /s;)
This CCW Permit holder strongly disagrees with the IDIOT, NO BRAIN writer.
I’m 67 and have been packing heat for almost 2 decades now. In fact I just ordered a BEAUTIFUL US FLAG purse that also is a gun holder and didn’t pay an arm and a leg for it.

The only thing I had to consider was the Butt size, then as Arthur set into the hands I had to switch to a Taurus Ultra Lite Revolver, when I could no longer rack my Bersa .38.
Now I have to worry about kick back as I developed Osteoporosis as well as Osteo Arthritis in my shooting Right hand.
It wasn’t the weight of the gun, as I can shoot the 9mm Ruger, it’s just that the Butt is to big for my smaller hands to wrap around it well.
I didnt know that! Here Ive been a CCP woman for many years and I never knew I was too weak!

Same here! I guess I’ll have to turn in all my police range qualifications and military weapons medals.
