The Right To Bear Arms Is The Right to Gender Equality

Interesting perspective from this Townhall.com OpEd

quote:
In boxing, a fighter’s weight is measured and reported to the audience. Size matters in a fight.
I’m a 5’3” female and I weigh in at a whopping 104 lbs. (Tiny person, mighty spirit.) But presumably I wouldn’t do well fending off a physical attack.
So when liberals started talking about female empowerment and fighting rapists, I got excited. Turns out, we had some disconnect on what empowerment really means. My internal conversation with liberals went something like this:
Libs: “We need to empower women. We need to fight against rape and bad men. Gender equality!”
Me: “Alright! Let’s teach women self defense, concealed carry, escape tactics, etc. Yeah! I’m in!”
Libs: “So to do this, give me your guns.”
Me: “Wait. What? You just said empower me, fight them, equality for all. And you said I should defend against rape. How do you expect me to do that without a firearm?”
Libs: “On Twitter. We want you to be empowered on Twitter. Also, wear a pussy hat and parade around in public with others wearing the same pussy hat. That will make you feel empowered. [something incomprehensible] gender equality!”
Me: “Are you insane?!”
Libs: “You’re either with us, or you’re a Nazi or a racist.”
Me: “First of all, Twitter doesn’t make me stronger. Neither does a ridiculous pussy hat. That’s just embarrassing. And none of this is equalizing! You guys just said that men are obsessed with penis-like sculptures and words and wanted to stop them by making up “gender-inclusive language. But now you are doing the same thing they were doing with your female organs displayed on hats. Also you are offending yourselves by supporting female hats because you just said that sex organs are not definitive of gender and that there is no gender because its fluid and that claiming a gender is wrong. So you are not being inclusive of fluid gender. Maybe just wear hats with holes to be inclusive of anyone with a hole
Anyway, how do I fight rape with Twitter? I can’t even fight rape by calling the police. Cops don’t magically appear between me and a rapist to save me and arrest him on the spot. Twitter doesn’t appear in the real world, period. So how do I fight a rapist with my words and my politics, which is essentially what you propose?”
Libs. “You’re alt-right.”
And so the conversation with liberals alleging the protection of women ends. Without answers and without logical congruity.

That's an opinion column with a made up hypothetical.
Does it have some hidden value?

Do you disagree that taking away a woman's gun leaves her more vulnerable than if she has one?

You know you always come here to make some worthless comment about my posts, like your classic one saying I'm always wrong, but of course not posting what or why I was wrong.
So I'm going to give you a chance to prove that you're something other than a pitiful loser.
Tell me one thing that I posted on this board that was wrong, explain why it was wrong, and prove it.

Your failure to see the value of her statement makes you seem...stupid.

I'm assuming that is a rhetorical question.

That's because you're functionally retarded

So I guess that means you don't know why it's a rhetorical question?

Why don't you explain to me the value of making up a hypothetical dialogue, and then arguing one of the hypothetical people in the hypothetical dialogue was wrong.

Nah, it just shows how retarded you are. Nice try, though.

The idea that you can dictate terms under which a posters worth can be judged ranks high in your list of all time failures.

The shooting sports is a sport that there really isn’t any point to having men’s and women’s divisions.
