I'm all for gun control, but honestly it's not worth the political fight. Dems should drop it from their platform for 10 years and fight the more important rights like taxing the rich, universal healthcare, climate change, and environmental protection. Far more lives would be saved from those than from gun control.

I haven't been able to get my prescription filled for 2 1/2 weeks. My work is suffering pretty hard.

I mean one of the candidates is a convicted felon that worships dictators and has said he will go after political rivals and that he'd be a dictator for a day.

Sounds like a killer in the making, just watched a doc about a kid like that that went on to shoot up a mall.

Pitbulls do this much more frequently but any dog is capable of killing a 6 week old.

Many women experience sexual assault first hand, it's not a small percentage.

According to RAINN, 1 in 6 American women have been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. Additionally, 1 in 3 women and about 1 in 9 men experienced sexual harassment in a public place. Young women are especially at risk, with 82% of all juvenile victims being female, and 90% of adult rape victims being female. Females ages 16-19 are 4 times more likely than the general population to be victims of rape, attempted rape, or sexual assault. Women ages 18-24 who are college students are 3 times more likely than women in general to experience sexual violence. Estimates of sexual assault vary based on definitions and methodology, but generally find that somewhere between 19–27% of college women and 6–8% of college men are sexually assaulted during their time in college.

Those numbers are disgusting. Take a highschool class of 30 15 girls there is a good chance 2 of them have been sexually assaulted or will be.

In 100 person college lecture there is a good chance that 13 women in the class have been/or will be sexually assaulted.

I guarantee a female relative of yours has been sexually assaulted, more than likely by a male relative or family friend.

I understand why a women might choose a bear.
