atxgun,

My knowledge is based on reading as many mags, Newspapers, and books as I can find on the topic of defensive shootings. Talking to as many ladies as I can that have been in situations. And surfing the web for any stories.

Quite frankly I have been unble to substantiate the claim that gun ownership with or without training by either sex leads to the guns ending up in the hand of the BG during a confrontation. Note: there is quite a bit of evidence to show police guns end up in the hand of the BG.

I do not believe based on my studying the issue that women are more prone tp having their guns taken from them and used on them then men! I find that if they have gone so far as to get a gun and then point it at a bad guy they will use it. The more times this is said the more likely women are to say why even get a gun. I say more power to women that get them.

I do without reservation say that training is the correct and smart thing to do. Everyone that has access to a gun should having good training.

What we all need to do is let women know that they are responsible for their safety. That it is not unwomanly to protect themselves. That their life is more important then the bad guys.

What an awsome message. I am so glad she is being vocal about what she is doing to prevent being a victim again. I pray that other women will hear her.

It is just too bad that it takes such a horrible thing happening to get women to wake up.
