Ok, my mother-in-law is an idiot.
Normally this is expected, and coped with, but my wife has alot of contact with her.
She's vehimently anti-gun, and very anti-woman-having-gun. She has poisoned the mind of my wife since childhood, to the point where my wife would much rather be killed by a criminal then potentially kill the criminal defending herself.
The latest thing is, her mom freaked out when she found out im building an AR15, because its an "assault rifle", and thus much more EVIL than any other rifle (of which i have two).
This is my main point: She thinks that women shouldnt have guns because they are just going to be taken away and used against her. I told my wife thats bull$hit, and its just not true. Does anybody have some solid figures to prove that a female having a firearm does not put that female at extra risk? I'm going crazy here with this rampant ignorance!
