You should be aware that no one was killed or injured by this incident where she "blazed away" and that the crime was stopped... Not to your level of satisfaction of course, which I am sure is unobtainable to us mere mortals anyway.... If you have such an inappropriate fear of people like her defending herself with less training and comprehension than you have, there is something to be noted that you must have functioning issues with all these irrelevant fears. If you are as old as you say, then you have outlived many others and need to realize that no one gets out of life alive. Your current age I may never get old enough to enjoy, but I will not live in fear of others either due to their criminal mindset or their "lack" of training and "proper" mindset should they choose to defend themselves. Ridiculous that you think in this way when age should bring wisdom.
Ok, so you think that we should be farmers or something in order to have some innate fuzzy knowledge of firearms when we use them? But this kind of training is informal anyway, yet you think that it should be formalized for others to obtain a firearm. I love the "hunter safety" doo doo, the classic FUDD retort... As well as the elitist "homeowners insurance discount" like only homeowners should be able to own firearms... GO back to England with that landowner attitude. I have neither land to hunt, nor do I want a discount on mandatory insurance because I have taken some crap class.... WHAT has the government ever formalized as training and made it better... You probably ***** and whine driving down the road about all the crappy drivers... "in my day, we had a real test" sort of bitching... But this is good for gun stuff...
My dander is up on this FUDD stuff... I just do not get the whole 2A is a right, but.... attitudes. WHAT OTHER RIGHT CURRENTLY REQUIRES ONE TENTH OF THE BS WE GO THROUGH TO JUST PURCHASE A FIREARM? let alone use one or carry one or whatever..... Doctors kill more people a year than any other group of professionals including criminals, look at the licensing to do that, yet they still kill people accidentially every day... No offense to Doctors of course, just stating a truth...
