ThinkProgress editor Zack Ford has an issue with this Chicago woman who killed an alleged would-be mugger in self-defense last week:
Conservatives are thrilled a woman with a concealed-carry permit shot and killed a 19-year-old would-be mugger.
That's not how justice works. The penalty for theft is not death, nor do we want it to be.https://t.co/ki1JrqOhJY

What Ford left out of his tweet was that the alleged mugger was armed, which makes this much, much more than simple theft. From the Daily Caller:
A 25-year-old Chicago woman with a concealed carry license shot and killed a man who attempted to rob her at gunpoint last week.
Police say the armed 19-year-old man approached the young woman at a bus stop in Chicago’s Fernwood neighborhood Tuesday morning. Surveillance video captured across the street from the bus stop shows a struggle between the two before the woman pulls out her own firearm and shoots the man in the neck.
Maybe he meant to hit delete and his send instead?
Methinks this could be something you should have just deleted instead of hitting send.

NRA spox Dana Loesch was having none of it and lit. Him. Up:
The hazard of targeting and then pulling your illegally possessed gun a woman as she waits alone for the bus is that you may get shot. Stop shaming women who defend themselves. Women have every right to consider their safety first before that of the person ATTACKING THEM. https://t.co/RDqEezLR99

The idea that women should not defend themselves and instead attend first to the wellbeing of their attacker is some of the sickest BS ever. What a mind job.

If you target a woman and attack her she has every right to drop you. Make predators afraid — as opposed to shaming women for wanting to live or not be assaulted or violated.
