Kelly McGillis said she plans to apply for a concealed carry gun permit after she was assaulted by an intruder in her North Carolina home Friday, June 17.
The actress, who is best known for playing Charlotte "Charlie" Blackwood in "Top Gun," recalled the scary incident in a recent Facebook post. ...
This isn't the first time McGillis has been the victim of assault; she and her girlfriend at the time were raped in 1982.
SUBMITTER'S COMMENT: She also starred, with Harrison Ford, in "Witness" (1985). I'm surprised that, after her 1982 rape, she didn't already have a concealed carry permit. |

Who needs guns? The police are there to protect you. You know, just like in Orlando while they waited 3 hrs. for people to bleed out and be reshot. These killers are not there to negotiate. They are there to kill and die and receive their reward in Islamic heaven. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
