Have you guys considered pointing these disadvantaged ladies toward http://www.corneredcat.com/ ? I've started many a lady down the path of lead enabled security systems by pointing them to that website. If they're not computer people try going there yourself and printing off a few articles. That's an awesome website.jeeperbryan wrote:can you post pics of her? that will help us in helping you :)
in all seriousness though. my fiance doesn't appear to be comfortable around guns either. but i carry around her all the time. she thinks i just carry every now and then. it is a good test for me because if she can't tell that i'm carrying, means that no one else can tell. now all i need to do is work on getting her comfortable with the AR15.

Re: Girlfriend
Wow man, that sounds like some pretty disconnected values ( or lack thereof ). I agree that it might be time to re-evaluate the inventory of that relationship.Kythas wrote:So I got in a fight with my girlfriend this weekend about carrying. She can't believe that, when I told her I was getting my CHL and told her I'd be carrying a gun, I meant that I'd really be carrying a gun.
She even went so far as to say she'd rather a BG kill her or me than have me kill someone in defense of her or my life. I brought up the shootings at VA Tech and the church in Colorado and mentioned that someone with a CHL at VA Tech (if it were legal to carry on campus) could have stopped the killer and saved many lives, much as the woman in Colorado did. She actually responded with "How do you know it wasn't their time to go and that's what was meant to happen?"
Arguments of mine that "How do you know if we're ever in that situation and I'm armed, it's not HIS time to go and I was meant to stop him?" fell on deaf ears.
Has anyone else ever had this "discussion" with your significant other?
I've often pointed out to those around me that that i'm not as much concerned about my own safety but I simply cannot bear the thought of serious harm coming those around me I love. Carrying is a real and practical measure I can take to help with those unfortunate circumstances if/when they should arise. I would be more than a little suspicious of loved ones that did not reciprocate in at least thought, not to mention action/deed.
