******************* Chicks & Guns "It is odd that when it comes to gun control, feminists welcome the same sorts of government intrusion on individual rights that they rightly abhor when it comes to reproductive freedom. Yet taking the fight for women's lives seriously means defending their right to take control over every aspect of their individual health and safety. ... Many proponents of reproductive rights wish abortion were never necessary. Most gun-rights advocates would prefer to live in a world in which no woman should need a gun to ensure her safety. But as long as contraception fails, as long as rape occurs, as long as men abduct women, stalk ex-wives and girlfriends and threaten harm to their children, the options to choose an abortion and a gun must equally remain fundamental women's rights. Both are rights worth fighting for."   [The Bitch Girls]   7:59:55 AM
