Disarming American Women :: 08/16/2014

The Left's weapon of choice against rapists: pens, urine, vomit, tears.

By Michelle Malkin

If radical gun-grabbers have their way, your daughters, mothers, and grandmothers will have nothing but whistles, pens, and bodily fluids with which to defend themselves against violent attackers and sexual predators. Women of all ages, races, and political backgrounds should be up in arms over the coordinated attack on their right to bear arms.

In Colorado this week, male Democratic legislators assailed concealed-carry supporters and disparaged female students who refuse to depend on the government for protection. The Democrat-controlled House passed a statewide ban on concealed-carry weapons on college campuses, along with several other extreme gun-control measures that will undermine citizen safety and drive dozens of businesses out of the state.

Representative Joe Salazar asserted condescendingly that young women can't be trusted to assess threatening situations at their colleges or universities: "It's why we have call boxes, it's why we have safe zones, it's why we have the whistles," Salazar said during floor debate. "Because you just don't know who you're gonna be shooting at. And you don't know if you feel like you're gonna be raped, or if you feel like someone's been following you around, or if you feel like you're in trouble when you may actually not be."

Senator Jessie Ulibarri, another elitist Colorado Democrat, argued that instead of firing back at a crazed gunman, innocent victims would be better off using "ballpoint pens" to stab at the gunman when he stops to reload. Representative Paul Rosenthal, another Colorado Democrat, told women to rely on the "buddy system" instead. And on Tuesday, after personally lobbying Colorado Democrats to restrict self-defense options, Vice President Joe Biden blithely dismissed a woman's concerns about family security. He advised her, "You don't need an AR-15" — even though it is the long arm of choice of 3 million law-abiding citizens, half of whom are veterans, law-enforcement officers, or both.
