Count Roseanne Barr among those smacking the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs for its asinine advice to potential female rape victims. No conservative by any stretch of the imagination, Barr has nonetheless come out in defense of the Second Amendment. Today, after retweeting Michelle Malkin, she took to Twitter to voice her support for women arming themselves against sexual predators:
arm the women of the world-send guns and ammo everywhere-train them to make clean headshots. #howtopreventrape

@ForsytheKirt rapists don't care what voices sound like, you fucking twit-they rape babies and horses too

@ChuckNoyes I think it's 'manly'- patriarchy teaches men to do it. Men need knots in their tails. #automaticweaponsforwomenandgirls

if pervs thought they would be immediately shot for even touching a kid or anyone else-they might become aware of reality more quickly.

Until women use force to fight force, force will win against them.

@CKgolfer2 the only way to stop a bad man with a gun is a bigger gun

While her messaging could use some work, we do appreciate that Roseanne, unlike Democratic members of the Colorado legislature, understands that women deserve to be able to defend themselves from harm.
THE FUTURE IS RIGHT NOW, MOTHERFUCKERS! #annieoakleywasagreatshot

It’s worth noting that during her presidential run, Roseanne considered rapist Mike Tyson as a possible running mate. We wonder if she would have encouraged her female voters to arm themselves against him.
