Leave it to a moonbat to over-complicate a situation which is best solved quickly and simply.
Rape ?????? What about car jacking, someone grabbing your kid, an ex-that threatens to kill you, a female that wants your purse or your man.
CCW is not just about Rape, can cover many scenarios, clerk in a store to home invasion. Out walking or jogging in an area with few people at that time of the day. More woman are killed due to people they know then for Rape. More woman are killed for what they have then for Rape.
Older woman living alone are a big target to both family, friends and strangers. Friends of an elder may mention to someone that their friend has money or jewelery. Friends friend mentions this to one of their friends and before you know it the elder woman is a target. Family member may mention to friend that their Aunt Nelly has buco bucks stashed in the attic. These elderly woman cannot defend themselves, unless they are trained in how to shoot.
There are different physical problems for woman, a 5 foot tall 90 pound young woman cannot fight off a mugger unless she is half grizzle bear. A 70 year old woman of same size and weight has no chance to defend herself.
All females need a defence method, they are our mothers, daughters and grand children. For the men, they know the workings of the world and some big burly men pack while the females in their family are defenceless.
For Mothers day buy your mother a gun, teach her well how to use it and take her to a range to practice. Take Grandmother along and teach her also.
