[img]images/icons/cool.gif" border="0[/img] <P>Well written commentary, Tempest. Hmmmm, I thought those "fuzzy, unwashed progressives" fancied themselves the champion of women's rights. "...too weak and emotional" indeed! Some women ARE....but so are some men, so the argument boils down to (as it always does with "progressives"), "we don't want you to have guns so we make up any ridiculous excuse we can think of to deny you that right, even if we look like idiots".<P>Bravo, Tempest. Informed, confident, self-assured women are needed and welcome in the pro-gun ranks.<P>And, I might observe, women of that caliber are more attractive to the men I hang with than the clingy, "just can't live without you" type.
