According to Democrats, women DO have the RIGHT to CHOOSE to have an abortion for whatever reason they want,but do NOT have the RIGHT to CHOOSE how to best defend themselves from sexual assault.
Feb 15, 2013: Democrat Representative Joe Salazar says women don’t need guns to protect themselves from rapists, because, well, the guy following you and making you feel like you’re in trouble might not actually be planning to harm you. And, well, duh, “That’s why we have call boxes, that’s why we have safe zones, that’s why we have the whistles.” [1:03]
It’s bad enough that liberal men refuse to protect the women in their lives.But now they won’t even allow the women to protect themselves.
A study of over 1.9 million self-defense cases involving handguns found that nearly 10% involved WOMEN defending themselves from SEXUAL ASSAULT or ABUSE and that, in less than 8% was the attacker even wounded. In the vast majority, the armed citizen only needed to brandish the gun or fire a warning shot to stop the attack.
And no, it is NOT enough to be “allowed” to keep a gun dismantled, unloaded and locked in a safe at home, because half a million of those self-defense cases occurred AWAY FROM HOME.
Check out this real list that the University of Colorado was giving to women to “help” them stay SAFE in the event of a SEXUAL ASSAULT:
Be realistic about your ability to protect yourself.
Your instinct may be to scream, go ahead! It may startle your attacker and give you an opportunity to run away.
Kick off your shoes if you have time and can’t run in them.
Don’t take time to look back; just get away.
If your life is in danger, passive resistance may be your best defense.
Tell your attacker that you have a disease or are menstruating.
Vomiting or urinating may also convince the attacker to leave you alone.
Yelling, hitting or biting may give you a chance to escape, do it!
Understand that some actions on your part might lead to more harm.
Remember, every emergency situation is different. Only you can decide which action is most appropriate.
Oh goodie. They gave us gals permission to scream. How very Liberal of them! Also to wear our “I have herpes!” t-shirts … would that be over or under our vagina costumes?
You gotta love, “Only you can decide which action is most appropriate.” You just know they really mean, “except if you want to carry a gun, which would be not appropriate.”
But I think my personal favorite is “passive resistance” which I believe is P.C. Speak for “STFU and let him do it to you.”
That’s advice?! Sheesh!You might as well point at the This is a Safe Zone sign or blow your rape whistle really loudly, cuz somebody might hear it and, you know, think you’re calling your dog. As one Tweeter pointed out, “If vomiting, crapping your pants,& making obnoxious noise prevents rape, how come there were rapes at occupy rallies?”
Exactly. Here’s a better idea. Pull your gun out of your purse and scare your would-be assaulter so HE is the one who pees himself.
A Frequent Tweeter named SooperMexican started a protest hashtag to ridicule this entire “girls don’t need guns” meme.
#LiberalTips2AvoidRape
yell “racist” at your rapist… that’s like the worst thing ever!
Tell him you don’t believe in guns and don’t have one, but you called the cops and they’ll arrive in 12 minutes.
Bring a whistle or other wind instrument and soothe the savage beast with music
pray to Obama extra hard, and promise to have 3 abortions in his name
Click your heels three times and invoke a safety zone.
Wait for global warming to cause a meteorite to hit your attacker
call 911 and enjoy the next 10 minutes while you wait
Don’t be an underage hooker in the Dominican Republic when @SenatorMenendez rolls up!
Ask attacker if you can borrow his Obamaphone to call 911.
Thank Colorado Democrats as you lay there and take it.
Try to relate to the attacker’s feelings.
draw an anti-rape circle in the dirt where the rapist can’t get you
Avoid Occupy Protests, The Kennedy Compound, & being alone with Bill Clinton.
#LiberalTips2AvoidRape pissed off Liberals. (Awwwwwwwww.) Sadly, being Liberals (and therefore stupid), they totally MISS the point of the hashtag. They were seriously more offended by the hashtag than by politicians making it easier for women to be raped!
Most of the anti’s tweets are about how HORRIBLE Republicans are for “making jokes about rape.” … Uh, noooo. We’re ridiculing idiotic Liberals who think the risk of an armed woman accidentally shooting an innocent is more important than the risk of many unarmed women being raped.
Morons.
One even whined, “You’re alienating your female base.” … “Alienating”? Are you KIDDING me?! Just shows how little Liberals know about Conservative women! As one female tweeter put it, “We don’t laugh at rape. We shoot it before it happens.”
Just remember, voters. According to Democrats, a woman should not be allowed to carry a gun, because she might wound or kill a potential rapist before he can assault her, BUT if she gets pregnant as a result of rape then that baby should definitely die a brutal, horrible death at taxpayers’ expense.
http://www.uccs.edu/pusafety/what-to-do-if-you-are-attacked-.html N.b., This list was spread about the internet today, where it was justifiably ridiculed. The University defended it for a while, but I checked at about 4 pm yesterday and they had taken it down.

Remember how the mainstream media harped on Republican Todd Akin’s remarks about “legitimate rape”? Do not hold your breath waiting for any of them to pressure anybody anywhere to talk about Salazar’s remarks. After all, he’s a Democrat. If a Republican uttered that “callbox and whistle” absurdity, the media storm would be visible from space.
Meanwhile, an 11-year old girl used a rifle to scare off home invaders. Don’t hold your breath waiting for the national media to cover this one. They would only care about her if she were a Democrat and her attackers (who they could prove or pretend were Republicans) had raped and/or killed her. But a strong-minded female who defends herself with a rifle (a PINK rifle no less!) … crickets.
Armed 11 year old Girl Defends Home from 3 armed Burglars: Armed Citizen [2:01]
Howdy everyone, hope you enjoyed your President’s Day. I took a moment to consider the typical liberal left hypocrisy as evidenced by media attention. Think about the episode involving former IL Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr, and his wife and campaign funds misappropriation to the tune of $750k. What, you’re not hearing about that in the media? Imagine if this were instead a former black conservative GOP Member of Congress. Or how about the countless droning stories about a Hispanic Senator taking a drink of water, as opposed to a Hispanic Senator involved in ethics violations and potentially underage prostitution. Yep, the duplicitous hypocrisy and double standards are alive and well…just think if Operation Fast and Furious, Benghazi, and drone attacks on Americans had occurred in a Republican administration.
I do not recall Democrats being so fired up about obedience when George Bush was in office.
Jesus said, “See that no one deceives you. Many will come in my name saying, ‘I am he,’ and they will deceive many. But the shepherd walks ahead and the sheep follow him, because they recognize his voice. They will not follow a stranger; they will run away from him, because they do not recognize his voice.” Mark 13:5-6 and John 10:4-5 (compiled)
Chicago-style politics isn’t a myth; it’s alive and well in Illinois’ 2d district. Check out the LAST THREE people the Democrat Machine in Southeast Chicago has sent to Congress:
1981 – 1993: DEMOCRAT Representative Gus Savage (IL-2)
Resigned after the House Ethics Committee determined he had tried to force himself on a female Peace Corps worker in Zaire. Apparently, it was enough that he said he was sorry and stepped down, since no further action was taken.
Resigned from Congress after being convicted of raping a 16-year-old campaign volunteer. Was later convicted on 15 financial crimes. Served 8 years in prison, had the remainder of his sentence commuted by President Clinton, then jumped right back into Chicago politics.
August 1994: Reynolds was indicted for sexual assault and criminal sexual abuse, yet continued his campaign and was re-elected in November.
August 1995: Reynolds was sentenced to 5 years on 12 counts of sexual assault, obstruction of justice and solicitation of child pornography. He resigned from Congress.
April 1997: A year before he was due to be released for his sexual crimes, Reynolds was sentenced to 6½ addition years on 15 unrelated counts of bank fraud and lying to SEC investigators.
January 2001: Clinton pardoned Reynolds,who was then hired by Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow/Push Coalition to … get this … work to decrease the number of young blacks going to prison.
November 2004: Reynolds ran for Congress again, but was overwhelmingly defeated in the Democratic primary by incumbent Jesse Jackson Jr.
1995 – 2012: DEMOCRAT Representative Jesse Jackson, Jr. (IL-2)
Resigned one month after the feds launched two criminal investigations against him, citing as his reason certain health problems he apparently had never noticed before, including “bipolar disorder, clinical depression, and gastrointestinal problems.”
November 2012: As soon as JJJ resigned, Reynolds announed his candidacy to replace him. The special election will be February 26, 2013.
Wanna take any action on the likelihood this CONVICTED FELON will be re-elected by the moronic, dead and multiple voters of southeast Chicago?
This week, the FBI raided the medical office of West Palm Beach eye doctor, Salomon Melgen. Melgen’s lawyer says the FBI hasn’t told them why, but IRS records show Melgen owes $11.1 million in 2006 taxes. A previous IRS lien for $6.2 million was released in 2011. And I thought paying taxes was supposed to be patriotic and, you know, charitable.
Melgen is a major contributor to New Jersey Democratic Senator Robert Menendez. Last fall, the Daily Caller reported that Menendez had accepted free rides on Melgen’s private jet to visit Melgen’s palatial estate in the Dominican Republic, where Melgen allegedly provided the Senator with underage Dominican prostitutes. (Word on the street is Menendez likes ’em young.)
Menendez’s office says this is all a “politically motivated right-wing blog” lie. Funny thing though, how shortly after the Daily Caller broke their story, Menendez SUDDENLY paid Melgen $58,000 for those plane trips. When asked why it took three YEARS for them to remember to properly pay for these trips, his Chief of Staff just said OOPS. It was merely “an oversight.” Amazing how often those silly things happen, isn’t it?
Speaking of silly things … guess who the Democrats promoted to be the new chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee?
Senator Robert Menendez.
Promoting someone who has pending allegations of using child prostitutes and taking undeclared campaign contributions from a tax scofflaw?
SOP for today’s Democratic Party.

While watching the very brief video below, keep in mind that Karen “Crazy Crackers” Finney is a former Director of Communications for the Democratic National Committee and former Press Secretary for Hillary Clinton.
IOW, it’s her JOB to watch what comes out of her mouth.
I’m sure we all feel LOADS BETTER knowing that Karen’s pejorative remark was not meant in any RACIAL way, but just, you know, that she thinks those who believe the Second Amendment means what it says are, you know, like … Coo-Coo Crazy Pants Crack Pot Haters. Which is so way much better than Redneck Coo-Coo Crazy Pants Crack Pot Haters. Right?
So, folks. Just WHO are these “extremists” who believe the Second Amendment means what it says it means?
Only the MAJORITY of American Adults, that’s who.
