.@msnbc's #waronwomen: didn't show Gayle Trotter testifying. She's pro-gun rights, pro-women using guns for self defense.

Bingo. Being a proponent of gun rights is pro-woman. Of course, if you scratch a progressive, you will find a sexist. Earlier today, they attacked attorney Gayle Trotter for speaking in favor of gun rights at today’s senate hearing.
Some (progressive men, natch) also attacked women in general. Believe you have the right to protect yourself from an attack? You must be stupid.
If you're a woman stomping your feet for your gun rights, check the # of gun deaths involving women. Next, check under your skirt.

Wow.
The sane speak out and point out a real war on women: Gun bans.

It saddens me to see bright young women say they would never use a gun, even in self-defense. 1 in 6 will be a victim of sexual assault.

And these brave women speak out about that. They were attacked and unarmed.
@C_Dub91 Could you look into the face of a rape victim and tell her she's a gutless loser for wanting a gun? @adamsbaldwin @KurtSchlichter

@DLoesch At 19, I was raped in my own home. I was unarmed. I haven't been unarmed since! This will not happen to my daughter!

@ahutchison84 Pepper spray enraged my attacker, and I was brutally beaten and raped anyway. Now I have a gun. @intrepidokie @DLoesch
— Dagan K (@dagank4) January 30, 2013
Never again.
@DrAlfredBellows @dagank4 @ahutchison84 @dloesch My sons would never advise pepper spray use to any woman but they will teach her to shoot!
— Free Sooner Patriot?? (@intrepidokie) January 30, 2013
@dagank4 Good for them! Thank you for your courage. We must stand up & fight for ourselves & our children.
— Free Sooner Patriot?? (@intrepidokie) January 30, 2013
@dagank4 @ahutchison84 @dloesch So sorry, Dagan! Why must men tell women what is an acceptable form of self defense?
— Free Sooner Patriot?? (@intrepidokie) January 30, 2013
@intrepidokie I wish I knew. Unless they've been there, they don't know that feeling of being utterly powerless. @ahutchison84 @DLoesch
— Dagan K (@dagank4) January 30, 2013
They don’t know. And they don’t care; they know what’s best for you, silly girls! Conservatives seek to protect women and empower them to defend themselves.
@JohnEkdahl @theh2 Tonight, I talked to a woman who protected herself w/o a gun; it's possible, even common

My suggestion for women's safety: every woman should have a gun and learn how to use it. Every. Single. One. cc: @codepink
— Phineas Fahrquar (@irishspy) January 30, 2013
Progressives seek to control them. And if a few get raped along the way, no biggie! Just look at Occupy camps. The end, and The Cause ™, justifies the means.
Why use gun to stop rapist when you can beg for mercy? MT @codepink Guns do NOT make women safe. A demilitarized society does!! #guncontrol

Dana Loesch weighs in with some more sanity. Gun ban zealots are waging an actual war on women. Last summer, conservative women on Twitter fought like girls and pointed that out. That must continue. The Left constantly harps about “women’s issues.” Well, guess what? The right to defend themselves is one.

VIa FBI, 10% of the 2.1m cases where firearms are used in defense annually are women defending from abuse, rape, etc.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) January 30, 2013
But hey, women are dumb and can't operate guns as well as men say feminists.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) January 30, 2013
Pick a narrative. Either women are weaklings who can't operate guns therefore shouldn't carry or they're strong enough for combat.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) January 30, 2013
Boom.

@DLoesch @ABC22FOX45 @whiotv @daytondailynews Which is why I AM armed. I am proud to say that I arm myself to protect myself and daughter.

@DLoesch As a former police officer I can, without hesitation, say armed citizens are better protected than those solely waiting on us.
— Chef Michael Perry (@lcbchefperry) January 30, 2013
Sorry, ladies. Progressives don’t want you better protected.

Precisely. War on women? Look to the anti-gun zealots.
