Apparently, Wayne LaPierre said this yesterday.
“The one thing a violent rapist deserves to face is a good woman with a gun,” he said.
(via Washington Post)
It would be interesting to know the following statistics:
- How many rapes are foiled on a weekly basis by good women with guns. (I am having a bit of difficulty constructing a scenario under which such a thing is likely to happen, but then I’m a bad man without a gun).
- Does the weekly number of foiled rapes equal the weekly number of children mowed down by negligent parents. (Kagro X, at Kos, has been reporting an average of two a week, in that minor category of accidental gun violence alone.)
- Have the number of such foiled rapes in the history of the entire United States equaled the number of deaths at Sandy Hook?
I’m assuming, of course, that there’s a media conspiracy (the media such as Fox being liberal, and all) to keep the facts of foiled rapes from the American public, though it’s hard to understand why the NRA doesn’t publicize each good woman who saves her virtue at the point of a gun. If there were no such conspiracy, and but for the NRA’s surprising reticence on the subject, I wouldn’t have to ask such obviously stupid questions.
