From that link:

Police said the incident happened after the man came over to his ex-girlfriend’s apartment, and they argued over property.

The man then reportedly grabbed his ex-girlfriend by the neck and threw her down to the ground, police said.

The man also went and allegedly grabbed her 2-year-old child by the neck, and that’s when his ex-girlfriend reached into her purse, grabbed a gun and shot him once in the arm, according to SAPD.

Without a firearm, it would have been virtually impossible for this woman to stop this scumbag, but that's the kind of world the political left wants - one where the strong can easily prey on the weak - because that is the net effect of gun control.

Yes, I know....its an unfortunate fact in our society that criminals and abusers like to seek out those weaker and smaller, necessitating the Colonel Sam Colt equalization method.

It always struck me as incredibly inconsistent how progressives complain about "inequality" in society, while being adamantly against the kind of equality that matters most.

A new study has found that a higher rate of firearm ownership is associated with a higher rate of domestic violence homicide in the United States, but that the same does not hold true for other kinds of gun homicide.

That means that women, who make up most victims of domestic homicide, are among those most at risk, said Aaron Kivisto, an associate professor of clinical psychology at the University of Indianapolis and the lead author on the study.

“It is women, in particular, who are bearing the burden of this increased gun ownership,” he said.“

If only there were firearms in these households.

So you think more Black people should arm themselves and deal with their attackers *directly*?

Yeeeeesh. NO bueno.

I think more law abiding citizens, regardless of color should be prepared exercise their inherent right to self defense rather than become a victim under the mistaken assumption that Law Enforcement will always arrive like the Cavalry at the last minute.

Guns don’t keep citizens safe. 2A is an anachronism that should be abolished.

I don’t care how many times ya’ll watch Die Hard. If any **** goes down, most of you will either crap your pants or just fail to respond in a manner that actually changes the equation because owning a gun, training with a gun has nothing to do with law enforcement. Zeroooooooo.

First of all, only people who are dumb enough to subscribe to that biased, worthless rag can read that link, and that ain't me. If you had an actual argument, you would have provided a direct link to the study. Why didn't you?

Second, the decision to own a firearm is up to the individual. It doesn't matter what any study says. I could conduct a study that shows homes with swimming pools are far more dangerous for children, does that mean we should ban pools?
 
Rebuilt community services that don’t assume every situation is a nail requiring a hammer.

How does "rebuilding community services" (whateverthatdumbcrapmeans) protect black people from their attackers?

You asked this question:

So you think more Black people should arm themselves and deal with their attackers *directly*?

My answer to your question is "Yes, of course they should." You disagree, so why don't you state specifically how black people are suppose to defend themselves from their attackers while people like you prevent them from owning firearms.

Dear me....Rich, is that you?

You changed your hair.

I believe you when you say you aren’t going to be swayed by numbers but you want people to be swayed by your feelings about your gun.

I don’t know who that is. The person in my av is the lead singer of a band.

How old are you? IT’s not a new band.

My ability to flip pancakes is in no jeopardy.....your refrain on personal defense, however, is not new.

Thanks for visiting, and please come back; I usually post punctually every Friday unless Lady Bum has grunt work for me around the house. :2wave:

Damn! I so could not think of his name. Undercover maybe?

Nah....he hasn't been in for about a month; Once his need to share his brand of cognitive dissonance reaches critical mass, I'm sure he will return.
