I find it interesting, and not a little distressing, that the author didn't address the fact that -- statistically speaking -- "armed" women are likely to have their weapon(s) used against them.

Also, it's past time to ask men (like Hannity) why they think the patriarchal precepts that underpin rape, rape fantasies, sexual assault, and the almost ubiquitous objectification of women (and children) are immutable (read: sacrosanct). There are too many members of this forum who wholly embrace these patriarchal precepts, and belittle/ridicule/dismiss those of us who adjure that these precepts can -- and should be -- eradicated.
