Virginia Tech: Guns Don’t Kill People…Mums Do
THE gun debate in America never really gets off the ground. After Virginia Tec, there has been lots of hot air and nodding heads but no sign of a change to gun laws. Of course, when once side of the arguemnt is armed, the debate is a less than even contest…
This from Australia’s Sunday Telegraph:
Monday is Ladies Night, and Lorrie McNally is a regular here. So is her 62-year-old mum. The air is thick and smoky, and the place is packed. People are forced to shout over the boom, boom, boom.
But these women aren’t clutching cocktails – they’re gripping guns. Ladies Night at the Shoot Straight gun range means women don’t pay….
The mother of an 18-year-old son, she keeps a Springfield semiautomatic in her purse and a Beretta pistol at home or in her glove box.
“I think it’s more important for women with small children to own a gun because you can’t run when you have children,” she says.
