Um, I do believe that when they said, and I quote:Guns make women safer, they meant that that's when the women has a gun. And, it doesn't really matter if he has a gun or not if there are 6 in. long knives in the kitchen, rat poison under the sink, duck tape and rope in the garage and a nice handy pillow in the bedroom now does it? Any thing can be used as a weapon, from a sharpened credit card, to a pencil, to a book to, yes, a gun as well.
