Gun control fanatics claim that guns are used by abusive husbands who want to kill their wives.
What the gun control fanatics dont want to talk about is women using guns to defend themselves against attacks.

Opponents to the right to bear arms say we should rely on police and calls to 9-1-1.
But how does 9-1-1 help the young women as she is snatched into a car with five men who intend to cause her harm.
How does 9-1-1 help the 85-year-old woman who is about to be tied up and raped by a man with previous sex offense convictions?
How does a 9-1-1 call help me when in the face of danger?
Truth is as good as police may be - or not be - at their jobs, they need time to respond to a call, and they need to be called.
What rapist is going to allow a woman to call police from her cell phone? What gang member will enable a victim to call for help?
DUH! This is why the rap group Public Enemy had a song called "911 is a joke". That got controversy, but when you're in imediate danger from a violent attack, 911 is a joke. You'll be dead before you can even dial 911, much less even speak to a 911 dispatcher.
Now I'll let Malia Zimmerman continue
But what every gang member, what every rapists, what every previous sex offender can understand and will respond to is the barrel of a gun pointed between his eyes - or lower.
That's right, the only language violent criminals understand is violence and fear. No amount of politically correct whining will ever erase that fact. Remember, most criminals would rather rob a 5-2 woman living in public housing than rob mulit-millionaire Shaq. Shaq will crack the skulls of anyone who messes with him. A 5-2 woman can't do that. She'll need a gun to protect herself.
Last word from Malia Zimmerman
Lawmakers should be ashamed of themselves for not passing laws that enable the women of this state to protect themselves when confronted by violent criminals, many still on the streets because of the laws these lawmakers passed that favor criminals over victims.
