by Emily Miller of the Washington Times was on Fox and Friends Weekend this morning to speak about the rise in gun ownership and gun use by women. I think she is correct when she attributes it to the desire for increased self-protection.
I think she did an excellent job in her interview. As I wrote earlier in the week, the unintended consequence of D.C.’s draconian gun laws was the creation of a new spokesperson for gun rights.

She is growing on me. I think she has come a long way, and I do find her attractive. Early on, when she was appearing on Cam and Co. on NRA news, she annoyed me a bit, but I am slowly coming around.
I think Mr. Richardson has called this one correctly: she is young, female, articulate, a member of the main stream media, and now an advocate for armed self defense, especially for women.
I can hardly think of a worse P.R. disaster for the anti-gun movement, which much prefers to cast pro-gun people as older, conservative, ignorant, intolerant, men with small penis syndrome.
Emily Miller contradicts the anti-gun narrative and is helping to re-frame the debate. That is what makes her dangerous to them.
"and I do find her attractive."
That's a relief.
Emily notwithstanding, what strikes me about this interview is the idiocy of the two anchors asking the questions.
Especially at the end. I mean, come on, does anyone actually know men like that twerp?
This insipid culture has made him forget who he is: a free man, a free citizen, in a free country, living in a dangerous and oppressive world. At least Emily has nudged him toward toward who he needs in his life: good comrades, to take him aside and teach him. There's hope.
