i can't tell if this is bait, so i'm responding as though it's not, but dude, if somebody's coming toward you after dark then they're probably headed somewhere unrelated and you just happen to occupy a space near the path they plan to take
That's not walking towards you, that's walking by you; commuting does not involve interception
I'm surprised no one's pointed out the retrospectively obvious. Which is that they meant six inches shorter, not six feet. ![Tongue :P](http://97.107.128.126/smf/Smileys/aaron/tongue.gif)
Def, but less fun is there
It's not really a matter of opinion. Let's say the debate is: "more guns, do they make women safer and equalize things?". If you take a look at any real-world statistics, and we have plenty of statistics on all things gun-related, it's clear that they do not.

Why are you citing the pedo magazine? Also women being killed by guns does not speak to whether women armed with guns are more or less likely to die,
women only consist of 10% of Murrican gun owners by huffpo's reckoningThe National Crime Victimization Survey shows that guns used in self-defense, by both genders, is a rare event, and it's the sort of thing you're going to remember for the survey, isn't it, that you had to pull a gun on someone to save your life?
"In 2007-11, there were 235,700 victimizations where the victim used a firearm to threaten or attack an offender"
Rare event?
The survey also notes:
"In 2007-11, about 61% of nonfatal firearm violence was reported to the police, compared to 46% of nonfirearm violence (table 10). Among the nonfatal firearm victimizations that went unreported in 2007-11, the most common reasons victims gave for not reporting the crime was fear of reprisal (31%) and that the police could not or would not do anything to help (27%)."
Yah that's hundreds of thousands of people quite chuffed they didn't get fucked up by Salon pedos or cheeki offenders
Perhaps people do pull out guns in self-defense more often than the survey suggests, but those people are apparently not surviving to be part of the survey ... Meanwhile, women are killed by guns much more often than women kill other people with guns.
Also from the survey:
In instances where the victim was armed with a firearm, the offender was also armed with a gun in 32% of the victimizations, compared to 63% of victimizations where the offender was armed with a lesser weapon, such as a knife, or unarmed (not shown in table). A small number of property crime victims also used a firearm in self defense (103,000 victims or about 0.1% of all property victimizations); however, the majority of victims (86%) were not present during the incident."
In the majority of cases where an attacker attacked an armed civilian they were outgunned or unarmed! Ha, gonna get culturally equalized
Also read the survey yourself, don't trust pedos reading the survey to tell you what they want
Safer for women, right. That's really born out by the murder rates.
By that logic Obama should disarm all African AmericansAlso concurred, cannot find what the Atlantic was citing
