You don't know us. Have you ever attended LEO taught classes on firearms, safety info and how to protect ourselves?? You should. Many LEO will tell you that it is sad that people - especially women often choose to learn how to carry and get guns AFTER they have been attacked. I suggest you research what you don't know about. Ex: The Well Armed Woman education self & home defense classes followed by practice on the shooting range is taught by Anchorage & Valley LEO, tactical officers, gun experts, etc. Take a class taught by LEO and learn how vital LEO believes in private citizens protecting themselves BEFORE they get hurt or killed. LEO believes so strongly in this that ALL APD, Valley, Tatical, Detectives spend hundreds of hours VOLUNTEERING their own time. No one makes a dime, so Neil, take a class, see what and how responcible gun owners dedicate time & money learning, practicing and getting involved in self & home protection before spouting nonsense. You might learn something.
