oh, where do you get this 94% you keep pulling out of your hat, more cut and paste BS on it's way, no doubt.
Now the odds of this woman being dragged into a park to be raped and murdered......is a lot less than for a woman living in Britain....watch the video and find out why.....
She is not a soldier, she is not Navy SEAL, she is not a SWAT member....just a normal American woman.........who can fight back against criminal attack...
Wonder why you constantly invoke Special Forces, I never do. Given the rape statistics per capita for UK and US are about the same, having a gun seems to make no difference.
O.K......let's try this question, and see if you will answer...
What would you prefer....that a woman is raped, or that she uses a gun to stop the rape?
Please, enlighten us....
Given that in most cases the victim know her attacker, and that in cases where she doesn't, the attack is almost always a surprise blitz attack from behind, a gun is useless to prevent an attack. Over here, more and more women are turning to self defence classes like Krav Maga, which teach situational awareness and how to deal with attacks from behind and dealing with armed attackers. Our women don't need guns to defend themselves.
Even in a case where the woman is stabbed, several times, the advantage a gun gives her is immense....it takes 7-12 pounds of finger pressure and a tiny hole positioned over the body of a man the size of The Rock for her to be able to put him down or drive him off......Krav Maga and just about any other empty hand martial art is not going to allow that woman to survive, especially against more than one attacker...
Notice.....this attack was stopped without one shot fired...tell me that this woman could survive this using Krav Maga........
Lancaster Woman Scares Off Bat-Wielding Attackers By Pulling Gun On Them
LANCASTER, Ohio - It happened along a walking path in Lancaster.
Dinah Burns is licensed to carry a concealed gun, but she'd only recently started taking her weapon while walking her dog.
Based on what happened, it looks like she'll make a point of carrying from now on.
"I think if they'd gotten any closer, I probably would have fired,” said Burns.
It was Monday when Burns was on a footpath near Sanderson Elementary School.
"Two gentlemen came out of the woods, one holding a baseball bat, and said 'You're coming with us'."
The men weren't deterred by Dinah's dog Gracie.
"I said, 'Well, what do you want?,' and as I was saying that I reached in to my pocket and slipped my gun out, slipped the safety off as I pulled it out. As I was doing that the other gentleman came toward me and raised the baseball bat. And, I pointed the gun at them and said, 'I have this and I'm not afraid to use it.'"
The men took off and so far have eluded police. Dinah posted about the incident on Facebook to alert friends and neighbors, to criticism by some.
"Most of the males' opinion was, 'Why didn't you shoot them?'"
Easy to second-guess a decision made under pressure, based on her concealed carry training, and police agree.
"To get out of a situation, back out, get out of it as much as you can without having to discharge your firearm."
"I will say it's a good thing to go from a place of danger to a place of safety, however you get that done,” said Sgt. Matt Chambers, Lancaster Police.
"Very thankful that it turned out the way it did, and hope it doesn't happen again, but I will be prepared."
