They’re getting desperate:
First up, NOPE! Women are the fastest growing demographic for 2nd Amendment support, and much to Michael Bloomberg’s dismay, the big thing that has brought women into gun shops and concealed carry classes is what is best known as “Gun Culture 2.0”. Now I’m not saying that women don’t enjoy shooting ducks and deer, or poking holes in pieces of paper, busting clays, or doing action shooting, we’re getting a lot more women into those shootings too. Women are really getting into self defense, and defense of their family.
It’s REAL feminism. They don’t need to depend on men to keep them safe, or even better, depend on complete strangers that will show up like a knight in a faerie tale with their shield (badge) and their magic sword (gun) to protect them as a “Damsel in Distress”. They can shoot an attacker and call that cop to haul away the garbage.
Still there are some women who think that Michael Bloomberg’s actions are not threatening the 2nd Amendment. We call those women “Idiots”, and it doesn’t matter how many idiots support his bad ideas, it won’t make it a good idea!
See! They’re totally not going after your guns!
The baby says so!
So what if Shanon Watts gets livid at the idea of women defending themselves with handguns and goes into sexist twitter tirades about how women are X more likely to hurt themselves with guns.
No woman should allow someone like Shannon to presume to tell them to not use a firearm for defense against rape or protecting children. They should tell that anti-feminist to go pound sand.
Shannon wants you in a body bag to pad her numbers. She doesn’t give a rat’s ass about you or your baby.
“Putting family safety first.” Bullpuckey. My Mom owned a .22 “comfort ‘n’ security” (my term) revolver. Ill-trained and a not especially well-motivated shooter, she nonetheless used her handgun effectively, without firing a shot, in an encounter with a drunk, violent career criminal at the front door. That’s what I call putting family safety first.
BTW-my Mom later became a sort of armchair anti-gunner, but an hour’s worth of plinking fun put an end to that.
Finally found the actual survey and right off the bat; I found the first lie
TO: Everytown for Gun Safety
FROM: Margie Omero, Purple Insights
DATE: July 30, 2014
SUBJECT: Results of a National Survey of Women Voters
Women VOTERS? Slightly different from ‘all women’ which the graphic leads one to believe. Especially since the last numbers show only around 64% of women voted, right?
So, 75% of 64% = 48% — less than half of women if my math is correct.
They also don’t show that Moms Demanding Attention is citing a poll created for Everytown for Gun Control. One Bloomberg group citing the work of another. Hmm…seems like they are taking lessons from Obama on transparency.
