Women and Guns

If I were a thief, and I had robbed some people’s houses, I would love nothing better than for the local community to organize a series of protests to call for a national law to make it more difficult for thieves to get away with thievery. The last thing in the world I’d want them to do, though, is to lock their doors. I wouldn’t want them to put their money in safes. I wouldn’t want them to protect themselves, I’d want them to have theoretical discussions and legislative discussions about things that could be done at some distance in time and place in order for me to continue my activity. — Scott Ott (Can We Just Get to the Heart of the Matter?)
