Gun-toting Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert has sparked a backlash after she said rape survivors needed a Glock 19 pistol at the time of their assault instead of abortion rights.

Addressing the House floor, the Colorado representative said: “‘Rape victims need abortion.’ Wrong. They need love. They need support. They need safety and healing. They needed a Glock 19 when it happened.”
Her pro-gun and anti-abortion views drew sharp reactions from social media users.

“I want to say this is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard but I’ve heard a lot of stupid,” said Molly Jong-Fast, the editor at large for The Daily Beast.

“Colorado [representative] Lauren Boebert blames rape victims for their own assaults, saying they should have been armed to fend off rapists,” wrote Shannon Watta, founder of Moms Demand Action, a grassroots movement demanding a solution to gun violence.

“The vast majority of rape victims -- more than two-thirds -- are assaulted by someone they know.”

I like her, and if a woman has a 9 mm in her purse, she can fill the guys personal gear full of bullets. That’s a sure fire way to take the steam out of him.

Shannon Watta said:

Um, so what if they know the rapist? Thats not the point. They can be filled full of bullets too.

I heard Penn and Teller (whichever the one who talks is) argue we should give a gun to every girl in America. She is free to do whatever she wants with it, sell it, throw it away or keep it. But just the fact that a criminal has to THINK about that gun will cause them to pause for a moment.

Penn and Teller are smarter than they look.

Well, I don't think that G19's make for very good purse guns; however an H&K P30 with an external safety? Now that's another story! (I'd let Lauren Boebert borrow my G19, though.)

I think that she was making a generalized point.

The H&K P30 is as big as a Glock 19.

Before she ran for office my brother and his family had lunch at her cafe in Rifle CO.

Her waitresses open carry. I had a pic somewhere.

Remember the old saying, "nobody ever raped a .38."

That’s right, nobody ever raped a .38, and they never will. All a girl has to do, is to put a few rounds into the guys crotch.And bingo! All of that rape zeal, it leaks out.

+1 for Lauren Boebert.

Loved the video!

(Did you see the look on that tough guy/carjacker's face as he ran away? All I can say is Wow!)

I'm for the woman to have the power to dictate her choices over her own body. No need to murder the rapist and kill him too. If she wants to abort the rapist's embryo, then respect that.

I have to agree with Lauren too a degree, my wife carries a 9mm, my wife also can shoot as well as most men. I believe that a woman should be able to abort a baby that is the result of rape is where Lauren and I have different opinions.

 

[Mikes10MM]

A rapist full of holes is much better than a woman having to get an abortion in my opinion. It saves the tax payers money.
