We're the Only Ones Who Think Women Are Too Incompetent to Use a Gun for Defense


This is what the Illinois State Police think women should do if they are "confronted":

Fighting back may take away your other options. Besides, your attacker(s) might only want to humilate you, and since we do that to citizens on a Daley basis, we don't see what the big deal is.

We give you an unsubstantiated anecdote about "a would-be-victim" [sic] who played the pregnancy card for sympathy, knowing what a cherished and central role fatherhood and unborn life plays in the priorities of urban male thugs. We then tell you about "some case were women" where the line between plural and singular is obscured, but still, it's nice to know whichever one of us wrote this is also an aging and fertility authority.

Hey, here's an idea! Tell your rapist you have an STD!

That's OK, baby--so do I.
Here's a SUPER defense tip: Vomit! Do something disgusting involving bodily expulsions!

Use your imagination and you can think of others!
For instance, you could BLEED! Just know that resistance--especially if you are up against multiple assailants, "would probably be futile."

But here's the most important tip:

Use of a firearm to protect yourself or property is not recommended.
Oh, Heavens, no.

Guns stolen from residences are a primary way of getting guns into the hands of criminals.
Boy, we sure got that right.

Half of all the women that fire a gun trying to protect themselves shoot someone they do not want to, i.e. friend, neighbors, relatives, etc.
Truly. When did you ever hear of a female competent enough to handle a complex and manly firearm without endangering everyone around her? Where do the dear little things get such foolish notions in their dingy, scatter-brained little girlie-heads?

Unless, of course, they're "Only One-ettes," and then the badge magically transforms them into State Official Warriorettes (you figure out the acronym).

Be aware of those times and places where there is a potential for attack and be prepared to defend yourself.
How?

Easy. Use a:
* nail file
* rat tail comb
* teasing brush
* pens and pencils
* keys
* anything rigid
Right. A gun will just endanger you and everyone else, but there's nothing quite as persuasive as poking an enraged, crack-fueled psycho possessing twice your upper body strength with a teasing brush to reestablish control of a situation. And don't worry if you can't find "anything rigid"--we're sure your attacker will be happy to come up with something for you.

Remember that screaming may be just as important to your defense as any weapon.
Yes, by all means, scream.* Better that than carry and use a gun. Howl in animal madness as everything human is stripped from you, and the only perceptions you experience are agony and terror.

  1. David, your commentary was (as usual) right on. It turns my stomach that an institution sworn to serve and protect does such a public disservice by distributing bilge that discourages women from self protection.

  2. It's too bad that they really aren't the only ones with such frighteningly misguided notions about the realities of violence and self-defense.

    Good post.

  3. Un-friggin-believable. The hold that the communist/socialist agenda has on many areas in our country, is amazing. And, before I forget, totally disgusting.

  5. I read the entire piece on their site and was infuriated!

    The gall of these people to tell a woman not to use a gun to defend herself, but in the next breath to use a nail file!?

    WTF? Why then don’t we arm the police with friggin nail files then?

    The simple truth is a handgun is the most effective means a woman could use to repel an attack from a physically stronger assailant.

  6. Hey, where are the feminists on this issue? Send this State Police website to NOW or the other feminazi organizations and let them respond...it's okay,dear, he only want's to humiliate and degrade you, not, you know, do anything serious, like rape you or sodomize you...are there no females among the leadership of the Illinois State Police that they would let something this stupid get on their website?

    And 1894c, I particulary loved the comment about, if they're such good defensive weappons, issue the police nailfiles! Woohoo, you hit the nail right on the head! Amen!

  7. Yeah, screaming's real helpful. Just ask Kitty Genovese. Oh, wait... you can't. She's dead. No one helped her as she screamed her life away.

    Thes people just should not be permitted in the gene pool anymore.

  8. The site no longer claims half of all women what fire a gun trying to protect themselves shoot someone they do not want to. I wonder why? Maybe because someone pointed out that it's not true. In fact it's so crowed that innocent people are taking up half angles from the gun that's unlikely, even if you assume no relationship between where the woman aims and where the bullet goes. Could it be that half the women hit their boyfriends and husbands that were attacking them?
