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.

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
