Colorado Dem On Why Women Don’t Need Guns: You May “Feel Like You’re Going To Be Raped, When You May Actually Not Be”
“There are some gender inequities on college campuses… that’’s why we have call boxes, that’s why we have safe zones, that’s why we have the whistles. Because you just don’t know who you’re gonna be shooting at. And you don’t know if you feel like you’re gonna be raped, or if you feel like someone’s been following you around or if you feel like you’re in trouble when you may actually not be, then you pop out that gun and you pop, pop around at somebody.”
Late into the gun debate Friday, February 15th, Representative Joe Salazar talked about concerns that women could have about self defense on college campuses.
Salazar said: "That's why we have call boxes, that's why we have safe zones, that's why we have the whistles."
.....then "You don't know if you feel like you're gonna be raped, or if you feel like someone's been following you around, or you feel like you're in trouble, and when you may actually not be . . ."

As a woman and a woman who has been raped there is no time to feel your way about it. All animals including humans have a survival instinct and a right to do so. To keep ones self alive and to keep ones self from being harmed is an inalienable right no matter what sex you are. Obvious is the ignorance of those who do not know.
