At the end of June, Pearce dropped by the house, asking my husband if he knew of my plans and if he approved.So that's the official word from the nation's leading "feminist" organization? If a woman wants a gun she needs to get her husband's permission?
Initially, I'm horrified. What if we had a bad marriage, and I wanted the gun for self-protection? Why should he get to overrule my decision?
Kim Gandy, the president of the National Organization for Women, sees it differently. It's never wise to bring firepower into an abusive household, she says. And if New Jersey's law requires spousal notification, victims get time to prepare - or leave.
You've come a long way, baby!
Now get me another beer.

What a fool!
Monica Yant Kinney just laps up whatever NOW is serving doesn't she?
Even she begins to identify the grossly obvious, that all these infringements can only possibly effect those that are willing to endure them.
Meaning only the law abiding citizen is hounded for exercising their rights.
When is Ms Kinney going abdicate her rights under the 1st and 4th amendments in the same way she is forced to regarding the 2nd?
After all if she has nothing to hide....
I sent her a letter regarding her story.
It will be interesting to see if she responds.
In reading her other pieces it is clear that she leans strongly anti-gun.
I just don't understand how such people can suffer such a cognitive disconnect regarding the relationship between an armed responsible populace and reductions in violent crime.
Everyone agrees the police are not protectors; but in the next breath GFW's always call for "more police protection" WTF?
People are sovereign individuals and are responsible for their own protection, which is clearly established in US law.
Yet in the bastions of gun control we are forced to abdicate our sovereign rights and responsibilities while given no viable alternative.
