COLORADO LIBERAL DEMOCRAT SAYS WOMEN WHO FEAR RAPE SHOULD NOT OWN GUNS?

The Colorado State Legislature is trying to resend "concealed weapons" permits to allow those licensed individuals from carrying weapons on University Campuses, ESPECIALLY WOMEN WHO FEAR BEING RAPED!

While trying to explain why women in college don’t need firearms for self-defense on campus, Colorado state Rep. Joe Salazar said even if women feel like they might be raped, their suspected attacker might not actually have intent to rape. So please, put the guns away ladies.

“It’s why we have call boxes, it’s why we have safe zones, it’s why we have the whistles. Because you just don’t know who you’re gonna be shooting at,” he said during a legislative hearing. “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 and when you may actually not be, that you pop out that gun and you pop — pop a round at somebody.”

In an attempt to back up Representative Salazar, the LIBERAL University of Colorado News paper suggested that "rather than shoot the intended rapist, do one of these 10 things:

1. Be realistic about your ability to protect yourself.
2. Your instinct may be to scream, go ahead! It may startle your attacker and give you an opportunity to run away.
3. Kick off your shoes if you have time and can’t run in them.
4. Don’t take time to look back; just get away.
5. If your life is in danger, passive resistance may be your best defense.
6. Tell your attacker that you have a disease or are menstruating.
7. Vomiting or urinating may also convince the attacker to leave you alone.
8. Yelling, hitting or biting may give you a chance to escape, do it!
9. Understand that some actions on your part might lead to more harm.
10. Remember, every emergency situation is different. Only you can decide which action is most appropriate.

SO ladies, especially you liberal ones..... what would you rather have to protect yourself from being raped..... One of these 10 methods of protection.... or a 9mm Smith & Wesson with a clip capable of firing 10 rounds into a man about to RAPE you?

    "It’s why we have call boxes..."
    Do NOT rely on any law enforcement agency since they're merely reactive and, with a high degree of probability, will arrive after the damage will have already been done.

    “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 and when you may actually not be, that you pop out that gun and you pop — pop a round at somebody.”
    Guns are a great deterrent, Mr. Salazar. Just because you're packing heat doesn't mean you'll auto-shoot people. But at the same time, there should be proper training that goes along with that weapon purchase, too.

    1. Be realistic about your ability to protect yourself.



    Listen to yourself, Tiny Tim. Let's do this:



    2. Your instinct may be to scream, go ahead! It may startle your attacker and give you an opportunity to run away.



    She may not be fast enough to get away, dumbbell.



    3. Kick off your shoes if you have time and can’t run in them.



    He might be too close for her to have time or be able,


    4. Don’t take time to look back; just get away



    Like I said before, he might run faster or way faster than her.



    5. If your life is in danger, passive resistance may be your best defense.



    "Be a good little girl and take what you've got coming to you."

    6. Tell your attacker that you have a disease or are menstruating.



    Freaky people might find menstruating a turn-on and even more enticing. Most likely, the attacker wouldn't believe those stories anyway.



    7. Vomiting or urinating may also convince the attacker to leave you alone.



    Freaky people would find stuff like that even more enticing!



    8. Yelling, hitting or biting may give you a chance to escape, do it!



    She might be able to fight him off, she might not. That's too large of a risk for women to take.



    9. Understand that some actions on your part might lead to more harm.



    Yes, like being unarmed.



    10. Remember, every emergency situation is different. Only you can decide which action is most appropriate.



    Hence, buy a gun.

    This is where gun control comes in. Have her pass a psych evaluation. I mean say she's in a dark parking lot, all alone, and suddenly she hears running behind her. She grabs her gun, turns and there's a man almost to her. She panics and BANG shoots him. He's down and dead. Grasped in his hand is her favorite silk scarf. He'd seen her drop something, picked it up and was running to return it to her.Now the poor bastard is dead and she's going to be traumatized for life and do some time in jail. In jail she is gang raped by 5 large lesbians and made to do unspeakable acts. Gee, if she'd been checked to see that she might be someone who has a phobia and might be quick to shoot this could have all been avoided. Know what I mean?

    In order to get a permit to carry in most states you have to pass a state certified training course, and there is almost always a long and detailed part where they describe all the ways your life is going to be hell if you shoot someone, even if it is in self defence. I know quite a few people who carry, and the first thing we all tell someone who inquires or makes a stupid comment like "if I had a gun, I'd..." is how much money for court costs/lawyer(Many $K minimum), and Jail time waiting for a hearing/maybe a trial(a few days to months but you will be arrested) it will cost even if ruled to be self defence, then we go on to explain how many millions you can be sued for in civil court even if you are acquitted in criminal court($millions) and the added lawyer fees from that. All things that they beat into your head during a certification course. Now, one thing that does need to be eliminated is any course which just mails you a certificate after something stupid simple like a questionnaire(in fact all certificate mills need closed, be it guns/cdls/diplomas). They need to add a bit to the law to regularly audit any certified courses to ensure that they really are teaching everything that is required to be a certified course.

And an hour at the gun range every few months to maintain a carry permit wouldn't be a horrible idea either. But as far as a psych eval, I think that would be over the top for someone with no medical, criminal, or other history to indicate that they are a risk, simply ensuring that they are well trained should be enough.

    How about some common sense?

    The times when a lethal weapon like a firearm is needed are exceedingly rare outside of war zones. Some of the negatives of carrying firearms is that (1) they might be taken and used against you (2) the consequences of being wrong will make you hesitate to use your weapon OR (3) you may use it rashly, out of fear or nervousness. (4) you may use it in anger, it being at hand when your enraged (5) Carrying a firearm may make you arogant and overconfident, leading you to chance things you would otherwise have the sense to walk around..

    I learned this from Robert Heinlein :). If you feel you need a weapon, carry one you won't be afraid or hesitate to use. Pepper spray backed by a stun weapon is not likely to get you jailed for manslaughter if you made a mistake (or can't prove you were under attack). I carry a baton plus stunner tucked into deep pockets in my coat or jackets, mostly for knife armed dirty dogs and pit bulls.
    Your best weapon is your mind. Be alert and aware of your surrondings.

    I hear you! People are more likely to use a gun if they have one. Everyone wants to "even out the odds" and carry a weapon. That idea is INSANE, but its their Constitutional Right to bear arms so let's lock and load and kill some one. Lets hope its a legal shoot. Otherwise "Whoops, my bad". I hate guns!
  • Blueskies debhead 2013/02/26 18:31:20

    I think, assuming a responsible adult, that weapons for home defense is a good idea.
    The fact you have them, or they think you might, deters a lot of people.

    I don't hate guns, but they are not romantic to me either. Awkward and heavy most of them. My father taught me to handle firearms, but he thought them a nuisance to have to carry around.

    We need to have armed citizens though. There are not that many police, we need to be able to defend ourselves in a pinch. My wife lets me worry about that part, she checks the locks :).

    They are basically saying if you just take it, you could save your life. In a very dangerous situation (the rapist has a gun/knife/whatever) if you fight, you're more likely to be killed than if you just let it happen. If there is no weapon, fight like hell!

    Either way, no one will ever rape me again. I will blow their brains out first.

    Thanks for responding Debra... but may I say I must be having a "brain freeze" this morning?:( Sorry, but Im somewhat confused on which side of this Salazar argument you fall? Im sure it's me and not you!

    When you speak of "not morally bankrupt," Im wondering IF you are speaking for the uneducated? To me, it seems as IF everything coming out of the "liberal" element can be quite confusing in a "double standard" for some time now! Back in the 60's through 80's we had the push of Free Love and the "burning of bra's" as a means of telling women, "You've come a long way baby!" Hell, they even got their OWN cigarette back then, yes? :)

    But on the "bad" side of that, women also lost some of their "feminine" side, yes? For just last month the obama administration pushed for women in combat roles in our military!

    Guess what Im trying to say, we seem to be headed down a road of NO SEPARATION between Men or Women when it comes to the "natural affections" the female has over man! That is certainly NOT meant to be chauvinistic on my part, but something I just believe is true!

    The MAIN objection I have to Mr. Salazar's comment was the statement that women are less capable of men in making "JUDGMENT" calls to their own personal security! For he COULD have said "MEN" have that same problem...

Almost every family I've known, and in NATURE itself, it is the FEMALE who is MOST protective of Morals and the safeguarding of her own life and that of her offspring! Seems said that we're trying so, so hard to change that nature! I can understand the "Women's NOW" movement thinking that is a "good thing," however.... personally, I think we sacrifice greatly in "laws of nature" when we do! OS

    " People with guns who are not morally bankrupt are VERY RELUCTANT to shoot a human being and SO CONFLICTED that they are likely to end up with the gun being used against them..."

    I agree 100%

    'm not being unsympathetic but there are tons of unreported crimes, you probably know, besides rape. And rape is far from the worst of all crimes. Not as rape is defined today. Many personal assualts and robberies are simply dealt with w/o ever calling police, who can not do anything anyway.

    And lets break down these rapes by demographic. I used to work all the time in South Central LA, all those low life Gangsta's, they treated women like trash. All women. They told me they targeted white women specially, for violence, for girlfriends etc. Not all, Not most, just the Gangsta's, gang banger and gangsta rappers, in the 80's and 90's and oo's..
    Maybe this popuation should be taken out when determing real rape stats?

    There are more false charges of rape than real reported, according to some stats I saw.
    Many women, for some reason , report falsely that someone raped them, out of spite or other base reasons, because it's been made so easy for them and it's a way of geting back for a breakup , getting stood up etc.
    AND very many things are counted today as 'rape' that is trully not rape.
    I just don't think we are getting the real straight story here.

    I suspect your under stress, not thinking straight. I live in America, where women dominate Universities, schools, hospitals, the media, the government at all levels and have for most of my life. Since the 1970's.

    Before that there was constant comment from overseas how 'free' our women were.
    My mother, who died in the 70's, thought she was completly free and 'liberated'. Unlike the old days. before she was born, in modern 1927. She opened up a resteraunt in the 1950's and built it up to 17 stores, before dying of cancer at 53. She thought my father born in 1913 old fashioned, but they sure liked each other.

    So I think you may be making way too big a sweeping accussation of a entire society....specially considering the layers of immigrants with old traditions.
