That comment really bothers me. I am putting myself in your shoes and if I had a girlfriend who said that to me and truly, honestly meant that...then I would have to wonder what kind of future we would have. If we got married and had family would this woman let a BG abduct, abuse, or kill our child than try a defend and protect the child or herself? That is a hard to have think about.

My wife of 13 years wasnt too keen at first of me carrying. At first, in her mind only the police should be allowed to carry. However it didnt take too much convincing for her to realize how important it is to be able to defend yourself and family. Now she wants a CHL. I know she would defend (including having to use deadly force) herself, me, and especially our child without question.

Don't be so quick to throw the baby out with the bath water. My students are fully aware that I exercise my Second Amendment rights and advocate for responsible use of weapons. I don't think I'm much of an exception either.

Update: She is no longer my girlfriend. There were other incompatibility issues. I think the fact she was 25 and I'm 39 may have something to do with them.

So you’re in favor of the death penalty, i.e. the use of deadly force to PREVENT a violent episode,

But you are against the death penalty AFTER the fact?

I find this dichotomy fascinating.
