A sisterhood that shoots straight:
Million Mom March faces a challenge
Next Sunday — Mother’s Day — gun controllers hope to bring one million mothers to Washington D.C. to protest guns. They are calling it the Million Mom March. But there are probably one million moms across this country who disagree with them.
The Second Amendment Sisters are among them. They are a national organization of women who recognize that guns aren’t the problem; criminals (some of whom are depraved children) are. Many of these women have protected themselves and their families from potentially violent situations by having unfettered access to firearms.
These brave women — politically incorrect to the hilt — will be marching on Washington next Sunday, too. Their representation might not be as large as the other camp’s, but the national media isn’t trumpeting the Second Amendment Sisters’ agenda they way they are the Million Mom March’s. Many interested women will be reading about them for the first time right here.
It’s an unfair fact of life: Women are vulnerable. They are often charged with protecting children and the elderly, who are also vulnerable. Some of them are scared of guns, but the ones who take the time to learn about and receive instruction in using firearms come to regard them as the great equalizer between the sexes.
Women who live alone or whose husbands travel, women who live in bad neighborhoods, women who hold dangerous jobs — they all deserve the right to defend themselves, as guaranteed by the Second Amendment.
Actress Sharon Stone famously relinquished her firearms a few years ago to protest gun violence, but at that point in time she was so famous that she didn’t have to rely on guns for protection. It’s the average woman — who doesn’t have a security guard or moat to protect her — who is the champion of gun rights.
Fortunately, the Second Amendment Sisters will be reminding Americans of that next Sunday. If you want to join their Armed Informed Mothers’ March, go to www.sas-aim.org or call them toll-free at 1-877-271-6216.
