Interesting book.

 

Locked, Loaded, and… Liberal? (freebeacon.com)

Quote

The next morning, she knocked frantically at his front door, he hid his children before letting her in, and she said the man had "threatened her with a knife and taken her cell phone and car." He urged her to call the police, but later found a report saying she'd stopped cooperating.

The experience was just one factor that eventually drove him to gun ownership. Another was a love of the reality show Top Shot, and yet another was a friend (eventually his second wife) who had carried a gun in the Coast Guard and set up some range time. Shooting a gun hooked him.

 

 

Timeless story - finding out that shooting can be safe and fun, on top of a way to equalize power.  All too many are afraid to try because, I think, deep down they know that their hoplophobia is completely irrational and don't want experience and fact to change their minds.
