Don't Mess With This Mom


From an anonymous correspondent:

Your piece on "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" got me thinking. I have a few images sitting around and I thought you might make use of them at some time or another.

The female in the images is my wife. She's not acting for these images. She was ambivalent towards firearms until a few years ago. She finally agreed to go to the range with me and the rest is history. She almost broke the bank last year with the number of handguns she purchased in addition to buying our 9 year old son his first .22 rifle. She's a wife and a mother of three. Unlike the "million moms," she has told me that our sons and daughter will not leave home until they have become thoroughly proficient in their defensive shooting skills.



My correspondent is quite an accomplished photographer. I'd like to see him start a website to post his portfolio on. He's also pretty fortunate to have such a rational life partner.

Alas, my wife has yet to see the light. When she does, it will likely be the flashlight of a thief in the night. As for me, I carry concealed (often my Five-seveN, the weapon so feared by the Brady Campaign, that merely owning it makes me a criminal and cop killer...hahaha), on the off chance I may need it and have it available. Being the law abiding type (like 98% of people in the United States), I obey the gun free zones, all the while knowing these socialist rules infringe my Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.
