[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3076675, member: 9374"] You'd b surprised... but again, that's the point. Learning to walk in these as a show of support so we can understand some of what women go through - not that this even remotely helps us understand how a woman who has been raped feels, but it is a symbolic show of support. COME ON GUYS! Seriously... how many times have we on this very board bitched about how so many Muslims will not stand up against Islamic terrorist, except in the cases of very few who issue "statements" about how terrorists don't represent Islam. But they never actually make a big deal, they don't hold "anti-terrorism/anti-violence" rallies, they don't go on the news screaming it from the hilltops, decrying the extremism and pointing it out for what it is... just plain violence and hatred. Not religion, just an excuse to behave badly, to hurt people and claim some form of justification. The same with liberal ideology - we say they don't actually live or practice what they preach. The same with so many things... THIS is a chance to get together, to make a very vocal and public statement, to stand up as a COMMUNITY of FIREARMS ENTHUSIASTS and to speak out against the stereotype that the media and the liberal left wants to paint of us - that we are nothing more than lazy, stupid, redneck, [B]MISOGYNISTIC[/B] racist white men! The firearms community in the United States NEEDS to become more vocal in standing up for what is RIGHT. WHO in the world would defend rape, domestic violence and sexual abuse? NO ONE! So, let's stand up together and make an impact, folks! We're working on getting television coverage, as well... how awesome would that be, for us to all show up in OSA t-shirts, marching in high heels and get some actual widespread coverage not just for this cause, for these women, but for OSA and the firearms community in general? To show the world that we actually CARE, that we DO practice what we preach??? Let's do this, guys, come on! [/QUOTE]
