[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wife is armed. If you are running the trails and see a 5'2" woman with trail jogging water bottles on her belt, don't worry about her. She can take care of herself.[/quote]

It’s to the point that I’m having my daughter trained and armed at all times.

Can’t depend on police to protect the public anymore. Time to defend yourself.[/quote]

How does she feel about you forcing her to carry a gun everywhere?[/quote]

She is actually going to the range and practicing on her own. She would rather have protection than be raped or kidnapped while running and have no defense. You only live once and don’t want to see a news report of her being killed or raped.

I would rather she kill her attacker and still be alive.[/quote]

I mean, ok, it's more likely that the gun will be stolen or used in a suicide attempt or domestic violence or be involved in an accidental shooting (of herself or someone else), but you gotta do what you feel is necessary to feel safe in public from other people with guns, I guess. Though certainly if I encounter your daughter carrying a gun while running on a trail, while I am running on the trail, I will feel a whole lot less safe. If more guns made us safer, we'd be the safest country on earth by far.[/quote]

Yeah, cuz my 5’2 Blonde daughter is so scary. I Call BS.  When yo I get mugged by a 6’ dude, you will wish she was there to help you.

Idiot.[/quote]

Anybody running on the trail with a gun is scary, regardless of height, hair color, or gender.[/quote]
