Anti-Gun Propogandist Criticizes Jodie Foster in "The Brave One"

How about a flick that shows formidable women using their brains, power and sex appeal to take

the guns away from the guys without using physical force? Maybe Foster can play someone like,

Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer Diane Feinstein, or Hillary Clinton; intelligent, powerful women who

have consistently voted for gun control, getting them an F rating by gun lobbyists.

First, I find Hillary, Boxer, and Pelosi neither sexy, nor powerful. Further, the downright "heroic" efforts of them to restrict the rights of people to defend themselves, when they have the luxury of state provided protection (who are often men with guns ), is not beneficial to women at all. I also find this writer's belief that women should be seen as sex objects offensive and proof that some people will try anything to be seen as right, when they are completely wrong.

BTW, gun control doesn't work. Have a nice day.

They wouldn't be making a movie about Pelosi, Boxer, Feinswine or Clinton. That foursome wouldn't be using any of the above -- they'd be sending other men with guns to do their dirty work. I said it on my blog, and I'll say it here -- whatever credibility people like Sandra Kobrin still have is ample testimony to the truth of the old saying, "there's a sucker born every minute."

Except when they come for your guns, then physical force will deemed appropriate.

The only group of people the Left does not believe in using force against are actual criminals, as apposed to politicals.

Numbers also show that women who buy handguns don't use them to kill or defend themselves. On the contrary, the gun owner is often killed by a third party who has gained access to her weapon.

Whenever an anti gives me this argument, I always ask why cops carry guns, can't they just take the bad guy's gun away and use that?

"The Brave One" also bolsters the myth that women can use guns...

Um... where to start.

and that's with 3 seconds and Google. Do your homework.

2) What happened to equality of the sexes???? So women can be president, run large mega corps, Be Prime Minister (and help drag down an evil empire), be the model of peace and charity in far off and hostile lands, go into outer space, win gold medals, help crack the genetic code of mankind, push 9 pounds of meat and bone out an opening of such small size that if men had the babies it would have guaranteed the human race would be long dead extinct... but hand them a gun and they turn into witless confused creatures incapable of operating a simple machine. OMG!

Where's my rolled up newspaper. *smack* BAD FEMINIST! BAD!

That's quite possibly the most sexist statement I've heard in years, and from a anti, no less. Amazing.

Saw her on the daily show, she seemed (acting maybe ) quite attracted to the idea of being powerful in the face of eminent attack. and then like towards the last 10 seconds of the interview was like "not that i would" (not a direct quote)

She basically spent 90% (or more) of the interview promoting a woman who could and would defend herself.

interesting....

heh

Edit: then again - as i said maybe acting - want to make those females come watch the show......

This is too funny. I am a femine woman that LOVES power in my hands (my gun) and between my legs (Harley anyone)? Any reason a woman cannot take control of her world?

Look, guns are not so someone can go break the law. Based on the articles for the movie, it sounds like Jodie plays a woman who takes the law in her own hands vs allowing the law and courts to handle it. Would I be tempted to if someone hurt my daughter? Hell yes! But would I continue? Nope, and that is not what gun rights are about (IMO).

Guns are a responsibility and all but expected by the founding fathers. Militia is what keeps everything in order, esp our gov't.

Sorry, started to rant, enough for now.

I dont think they are a responsibility and something citizens were supposed to have but I do think they were expected. And they were entitled to them.

I also really doubt that the militia keeps the government in line. I doubt you mean in more recent times.

Hey, at least our enemies (some of them) know and understand hypocrisy and double standards when they see them...

I had to talk a gun buddy of mine into seeing The Brave One because, having read a number of bad reviews, he thought the film was going to be terrible. I kept telling him that the majority of movie reviewers are far left Hollywood elitist types that would have nothing good to say about a pro-gun movie. Reluctantly he agreed to go with myself and another friend to see it. And, we all loved it. It was really a great movie for more reasons than I can even touch on here. But here are just a few:

- It demonstrated how helpless an unarmed victim can be when face to face with a violent criminal that wants to do you harm.

- It demonstrates how many people never even consider having to protect themselves from becoming a victim until after it has already happened to them. Then, they come face to face with how the system frowns on their right to do so.

- It demonstrates how the very strict gun control laws of New York face the choice of forced helplessness or break the law herself. It also shows how the waiting periods required to obtain a weapon negatively affect someone in immediate danger.

- It demonstrates how places like New York consider self-defense as nothing more than vigilantism.

- It demonstrates how simply having a gun can help a victim overcome agoraphobic fears and feel more comfortable in public.

I guess the writer is advocating that all women be assigned an armed bodyguard detail like Pelosi etc.

The writer is an idiot.

"The Brave One" also bolsters the myth that women can use guns--as the National Rifle Association Web site puts it--for "personal safety strategies" and "refusing to be a victim."

Is the author suggesting that women are incappable of using guns for self defense? I've seen too many women shoot to believe that is true. What a demeaning statement about women!

What color is the sky on this Bozette's (that's the feminine form of Bozo) planet?

***WARNING*** I'm a woman with a gun!

She is why women get called So embarrassing.

Shocking. Anyone with half a brain knows that women can't use guns. They lack opposeable thumbs and are unable to understand simple mechanical devices. Also, the world is flat, the Earth is the center of the Universe, and witches float on water.

Seriously though, maybe one reason that women might be endangered by the proliferation of firearms is that people like this convince themselves that they can't be empowered and must put their safety and well-being in other peoples' hands. Maybe if more women were to get in on "the proliferation of guns" they might find out what useful tools they really are.

"Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer Diane Feinstein, or Hillary Clinton; intelligent, powerful women who have consistently voted for gun control"

Maybe someone should gently break it to this "Bozette", that Boxer and Feinstien have CCW permits, for California, no less. So does Rosie. I just sent her an email.

Sick her, PAX.

>>On the contrary, the gun owner is often killed by a third party who has gained access to her weapon.<<

Really? I have heard this for years, but I have yet to find where it has actually happened.

Do we know of any/many cases where a bad guy physically took a gun away from a woman and used it against her?

Women can't use guns? It's about time this kind of solid, progressive thinking is stated in public.

Now, get those shoes off and get in the kitchen and fix me breakfast, woman, cause I got all the guns.

*Warning: the above was sarcasm, brilliant sarcasm, but not meant to be serious*

Yeah, women just can't use guns.

Yep, she's right. Women just can't use guns.

You forgot about the one we had hidden in the pantry. So as soon as you get your beer guzzling, sports watching, 24/7 hunting butts in gear we'll be right on that.

Can she fix me breakfast to?
