A local women’s-only conceal-to-carry gun course uses a real hands-on method to instill confidence in each student’s ability to handle confrontation, by keeping in mind a weapon is a the last resort. Dr. Lisa Orick-Martinez, communication studies professor and faculty advisor at Central New Mexico Community College, said she began instructing this course as a way to teach women the correct way to handle a weapon. “When I was younger, my older brother said, ‘You’ve got to have a handgun, you have to know how to shoot it, and you got to know how to protect yourself,’” Orick-Martinez said.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
