      It is a genuine shame that a former congresswoman would allow herself to be used by heartless leftist thugs to advance a cruel agenda. 3 years ago, a crack smoking thug broke into my mothers home, she defended her life with her gun. Leftists would disarm her and force her into a helpless state for no purpose other than making themselves feel good. Read these posts, people like Penelope have nothing but ad-hominem attacks to offer as an argument. They have nothing but fallacies to bolster their claims, they revel in their victim-hood and attack anyone who dares question with hate and bigotry. Defense is a basic human responsibility. Those of us who are willing to defend ourselves and our own are purposely being cast as the problem by ideologues who’s agenda is self destructive. Let them be victims, cowardice is their choice but don’t fall for the guilt they would lay at our feet for daring to face criminals as heroic Men and Women.

      The “war on Guns” like the war on drugs and war on poverty. “FEEL-GOOD” laws.
