A Gun is a Tool for Moms to Use to Protect Their Kids: Quote of the Day

Dan Zimmerman - comments No comments

“For the longest time it’s always been assumed that it’s the men who are the protectors. But when you really start to ask, ‘Who is the most responsible person in the household?’… It’s the mom! It’s my job to protect my family with whatever tools are available, and a firearm is just another one of those tools.” – Amanda Suffecool in I Took A Ladies Handgun Fundamentals Course — Here’s Why [via refinery29.com]

  1. Another threat to OUR US Constitutional-Bill of Rights by Law Enforcement… Especially the 2nd amendment in this county…. This is why WE THE PEOPLE need to rein in our government, and our Law Enforcement community…Personally, after read all the conflicting B.S….I DON’T believe a word from CO. LE…This is why we need the following….

    Immeadite action that should be taken by “WE THE PEOPLE !!!”

    1.) [NCRBs] : ” Nationwide Full Independent Civilian review boards of all rank and file Police officers! To promote the general welfare, life, liberty, freedom, and police accountability!

    2.) Immediate Nationwide legislative action to ban ALL Police Unions throughout the USA!

    3.) Rescind Law Enforcement agency acquisition of surplus military equipment, and weapons!

    4.) IMMEDIATE Nationwide legislative initiative to remove ” sovereign immunity protections” from all Law Enforcement agencies!

    5.) Nationwide legislative action required to remove any “Special Privileges, Political Rights, protectionism, and favoritism” for the Law Enforcement community. Anything that would violate the 14th amendment of equal rights protection…..

  2. These comments make my brain hurt. No reasonable discussion. All bickering.

    NO I AM NOT OK WITH THE NRA ENDORSING ROY MOORE!! At best he is a creep. There should have been an organized movement for a single write in candidate, like Ben Shapiro explained. This partisan lowering the bar will not end well for anyone.

    I am not saying that seat should be conceded to Dems. No way. But put a Republican in that is not so questionable. Even if the allegations are not true (which there seems a very real possibility they are) it’s not a good look to be even associated with a potential scumbag pervert predator. (I say this as a Penn State fan!)

    The public perception of both parties is in the toilet now. Republicans would be wise to seek some moral high ground now. If this keeps up, we are going down a very treacherous road.

    Now go ahead. Label me a commie. Ignore my rational points and logical argument. Yell and kick and scream. That always helps….. nothing.

  3. While I’m not a fan if the femenist proclamation that the mom is the most responsible person in the household… I do agree that those who spend most time alone with kids should be equally ready to protect them. Women are a big reason to want the freedom to own a gun in the most pedestrian sense. From day to day they are some of the most targeted and often disadvantaged so yeah arm up ladies!

  4. That CMP 1911 scheme is so ridiculous. TWO nics background checks. No C&R love.
    Totally absurd. And, they are going to completely botch the whole operation just you wait.

  5. You are right about prices
    You could hunt with an sks that costs $600 used
    Or you could buy a brand new Ruger American Ranch bolt action in 7.62 x 39 for $400 and put a $200 scope on it
    Or buy a 7.62 x 39 upper for your AR 15
    I see them with bcg and charging handle for $400
    Both are lighter and more accurate and easier to mount a scope
    You like historical rifles?
    Carry a 10 pound M 14 into the woods
    It gets real heavy real fast!

  6. regarding that top pic of soldiers shooting….when exactly did this lanyard-on-a-military-pistol thing start? I saw it in the early 90’s in ROTC, thought it was goofy and unnecessary then. I did know some officers who actually did this, but it was a personal choice and their reasoning seemed to be to avoid getting in trouble of they misplaced the pistol. Actual military units do it? is this by individual choice or are units now mandating that practice? I get that you don’t want to lose your pistol, embarrassing and all, but this seems a bit extreme…not to mention cumbersome to use in practice when you actually need to shoot. that tension on that guy’s phone-cord-like lanyard is definitely yanking on the grip frame of that pistol. consistent force sure, but you can’t tell me it does not affect accuracy having to compensate for that opposing force vector. not a fan.

  7. I personally own 2 Gunsite Scouts. My first was in .308 and I mounted a Leupold 1.5-4 variable. Do not like this scope. Eye relief in not in true scout configuration being over front part of receiver. Second Gunsite Scout is in .450 Bushmaster. I placed a Burris 2×7 variable on that. Much better eye relief and just as clear. Also just as much money! Replacing Leupold with Vortex 2×7 after hunting season. Own multiple Vortex products and customer service is second to none. Leupold being relegated to my Marlin 336.

  9. You really make it seem so easy together with your presentation however I in finding this matter
    to be really something which I believe I would never understand.

    get the hold of it!
