Some of the million moms would have some people believing that a mother who loves her children would never own a gun. But, I declare that a mother who loves her children will do everything in her power to defend herself and her children. As a victim of violent crime myself, and as the wife of a man deployed to Bosnia in the service of his country, leaving me alone for half the year with our two kids, I will not be made to feel guilty for wanting to rely on myself rather than the police to protect me and my kids. The cops' job is to enforce the law, not to see to the full-time protection of my family.
Education is the key to gun control and kids.
As a responsible gun owner, it is my job to see to it that my kids are educated in the safety and handling of any guns in my care. No matter where you stand on the issue, if as a parent you choose not to educate yourself or your kids, you are doing a great disservice to yourself, your kids, and your community.
