(WGCL-TV)
A crowd of people rallied against gun violence at the Georgia State Capitol in honor of Trayvon Martin Tuesday, the one year anniversary of his shooting death. Many of the protesters were speaking out against so-called “stand your ground” laws, which allow gun owners to use deadly force if they feel as if their lives are in danger.
During the rally, one female protester — wearing an Obama hat — told WGCL-TV that using a firearm in self-defense “is not an option.”
“It’s not an option,” she repeated.
The reporter then asked her, “But what if someone is trying to kill you?” She replied, “They’ll just have to kill me.”
“What an incredible admission on this woman’s part,” CNSNews.com’s Stephen Gutowski writes. “She’s willing to let everybody know that she’d rather be murdered than use a gun in self defense. She’d rather be a victim than be armed.”
Another protester said gun control only hurts law-abiding gun owners, not criminals.
“I think that people should have the right to defend themselves. It’s our Second Amendment right and any sort of legislation on guns or any sort of gun control, all it’s doing is hurting the victims.”

Feb. 28, 2013 at 1:08pmWhy doesn’t this site get it together??? All the comments are out of order… Fix this. Can you imagine if we didn’t have abortion how bad the crime would be?? Fact is, Sanger was correct and we should thank her. The irrefutable fact is the biggest threat to your family in America is not a Muslim jihadist, but a young black male. Which, if Farrakhan gets his way will be Muslim as well. Go ahead, someone will inevitably call me racist like that keaton tool, but how about you disprove what I said? Let me save you the trouble. You can’t.

Feb. 28, 2013 at 1:38pmDear sickofliers:
so, you are an abortion supporter!
You think abortion reduces crime!
The murder of the innocent reduces crime!
Totally pathetic!
You would probably want us to believe you really gave a damn about the 20 children at sandy hook who died when abortion is murdering 3,500 per day in the us!
The greatest/deadliest assault weapon in the world is abortion!
But as you indicated! You give it your full support!
But do not feel bad aprox half the us stands with you on murdering 3,500 per day!
Where are the cries for the assault weapon “abortion” to be banned for the innocent lives taken by it?
Sanger was a black hearted baby killer!

Feb. 28, 2013 at 12:17pmPlease, to the woman on the news, get a gun! Take a course and learn how to use it, defend yourself and your family. Please do not become a victim, you will only be counted as one of the statistics if you find yourself in a bad situation. Worse than a someone killing you is living with what they have done to you! I beg those that are not armed to rethink the idea!

Feb. 28, 2013 at 11:06amWhen I heard about this woman, I was initially dumbfounded, but then after thinking about it, it made more sense. This is what knee-jerk reactionary partisanship gives you. If Obama and the MSM went on a campaign suggesting to these Obama-bots that they commit suicide to display their love for him, hundreds of thousands of these people would be dropping from skyscrapers and bridges. There is absolutely NO thought-process with someone like this. They are told by people how to respond to issues, and they blindly comply. It’s terribly sad.

Feb. 28, 2013 at 10:53amI’d be interested in hearing her response to other questions.
1) if a mass murder was taking place and a gun was avialable. would you kill the murderer or let everyone die?
2) If someone was trying to kill you or your family member , and someone else had a gun would you want them to shoot the murderer or let you a or your family member die?

Feb. 28, 2013 at 10:51amRacist – smacist. What happened to the days you could pick up the “Official Polak Jokes” book (or German, Blond, Male, Female, etc.) at the check out stand of the local Five & Dime. Making “jokes” and “statements” is not racist. Now – tar and feathers(?), yep, that’s a bit racist.
KEATONC666, you are the first to scream racist at comments that haven’t even been posted yet. Makes me think of the old saying “A Skunk smells his own scent first”. If a sentance or a comment is considered ‘racist’ to you, and you fly off the ‘flag wagon’, then how did you feel about the Black comedy shows of the 70′s, and the comments every week from J.J. “Dynomite” Walker? I’m guessing you were also ok with Redd Foxx? But it’s the “White” guy that’s the “racist” as far as you’re concerned, right? You may want to spend a bit more time doing homework about racist’s. A “JOKE” or “COMMENT” is not “racist”. The Leftist Media just recently made it “racist” as a means to ‘shut down’ the Conservative Party and pave the way for Oby “Boy”. It’s “ACTIONS” and “IDEALS” that can be race based, but not a “comment”. If the “comment” were the case, then there would be every teenager put in jail for screaming “I hate you” to their parents.
Pretty certain that KEATONC666 licks jello shots out of Piers Moron’s belly button…(then they “do it”). “LUNCH BREAK…”. Now he’ll go off about me bad mouthing gaay’s. Man, that’s so gaayy….

Feb. 28, 2013 at 10:35amPeople don’t consider that they may not be killed in a self defense situation. It is possible that you could be severely beaten, and suffer physical and brain damage, You could spend the rest of your life in a hospital bed or wheel chair, a fate possibly worse than death. Or be beaten and tortured for days, and have no means to stop it. It does happen more and more frequently.
This is a free country. If this person does not want to defend herself, so be it. But don’t take my choice away.
The comment about the unattractive not having to be worried about rape is misinformed. Rape is a crime of violence against women. It is not unusual for a senior to be raped.

Feb. 28, 2013 at 10:18amKeatom…it’s obvious that you libs have no clue what racism looks like since you clearly can’t see it spewing forth from the left.
On this story, I would be willing to bet she would change her mind once the “killing” started. Her ignorance is astounding.

Feb. 28, 2013 at 10:14amMay I play Devil’s advocate? I am a proud gunnut. I own over 20 firearms and have a lifetime license to carry. I would not hesitate to use deadly force to protect my wife or my 3 children. But I don’t think I would use deadly force to protect my life. If I am killed, I know where I am going. I do not expect others agree or, this is just something that I have been feeling more and more over the years, it’s been a change in my way of thinking. Not good or bad, just a change. I would use a gun to defend my child in a heartbeat. I would use a gun to defend the 2nd amendment and the rights of others to defend themselves. But like I said, if I am killed I know where I am spending eternity, the guy I am shooting? I don’t know. That said, the problem with this idiot is that she wants to impose her personal preference of not defending herself on others. And again, that is a right, a choice, that I would fight for you to have.

Feb. 28, 2013 at 1:53pmYou say you would defend family members but not yourself!
WHAT IS YOUR FAMILY SUPPOSED TO DO IF YOU ARE KILLED?
HOW IS THAT MOM SUPPOSED TO PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE FOR YOUR CHILDREN IF YOU ARE GONE!
I HAVE BEEN A CHRISTIAN FOR OVER 20 YEARS.
IS THERE SOME KIND OF EXTRA CLORY YOU WILL RECEIVE FOR NOT DEFENDING YOURSELF?
YOUR DEATH WOULD PUT YOUR FAMILY IN A VERY HARD SITUATION!
DOES THAT NOT MATTER AT ALL?
WHAT IF YOUR INCOME BEING GONE CAUSED THEM TO BECOME HOMELESS AND THEN THE STATE TOOK THE KIDS AWAY FROM YOUR WIFE BECAUSE SHE COULD NOT PROVIDE FOR THEM?
BETTER RETHINK NOT DEFENDING YOURSELF.
EVEN PETER CARRIED A SWORD IN LUKE AS DIRECTED BY JESUS HIMSELF!

Feb. 28, 2013 at 10:12amI knew I guy like that once. He swore even if his children were being beaten or his wife raped in front of him, he would not resort to violence to protect them. The first time someone got in his face during a simple argument, he shoved the other person and went to hit him. Human nature will always prevail. We are animals, period. Intelligence does not change that fact.
These people put on a good show, but that is all it is, a show.
