Kimberly Corban, the rape survivor who President Obama told last week at a CNN town hall that having a gun in her house to protect her and her kids might not make her safer, has penned a powerful Facebook post asking people to stop focusing so much on “how” she defends herself but on “why” it’s necessary in the first place.
Well said, Kimberly.
Kimberly has also been forced to defend her decision to carry a gun over on Twitter from those who think they know what’s best for her and her family:
