so I am currently doing a semester abroad in beautiful Australia. A close friend of mine had her mom visiting this past week, and talking at a bar her mom had a very interesting story.
My friend was born in england, where she lived for a year. Her mom told us a story about a staulker who showed up at her house one day when her husband was on a business trip. he was talking to her through some type of vent, and was saying he was outside, was going to do all kinds of things to her and her family, he knew her husband was away, etc etc. This poor woman has her life threatened, and has a 3 year old and an infant in the house by herself. The guy comes around to a front door, and the woman struggles to keep the guy from busting in. Somehow she managed to lock him out and call for help. They ended up having to move away because of this guy.
This story got me thinking about if that were my family. I am only 20 years old, but i guarentee when I have a family or move in with a girl, One of the first things I will do is get 38 special and show her how to use it. To me a gun is the only chance a woman has if someone gets into the house with the intention of harming her, the cops cant get there that fast. I always bring up this scenario to Anti's when they are telling me that no one should be allowed to have a pistol, there is no reason for them. They usually dont have much of a comeback... how many of you share this opinion, or practice it? I know in my home, I, my sister, or my mother could access a pistol if they needed to.
