Amanda Marcotte is an idiot
And, like Kanye West, I somehow know who the fuck she is.
The US is shameful because women are buying guns to defend themselves.

She can go pound sand… (being polite)…

I had no idea who she was. I had to Google her and stopped at “an outspoken voice for the left”.
Her opinion is worthless, especially as more and more “of the left” are starting to purchase firearms for defense reasons.

>I had no idea who she was.
An Edwards paid blogger who got canned for anti-catholic hate posts she didn’t scrub fast enough.
Also, she wrote a book, “It’s A Jungle Out There”, that was published with some race insensitive illustrations.
Oh, I’m sorry, she’s a poor, oppressed, empathic SJW who has been routinely discriminated against.

But she was absolutely correct. It is shameful that these women are _just now_ buying the tools necessary to defend themselves in the event they have the need.
What?…what was that?
Oh, that’s not what she meant?
Never mind.

And lest we forget, she called those who defended the falsely accused Duke lacrosse players “rape loving scum”.
I go with Old NFO’s comment – she can go pound sand.

I recall she was famous for publishing the stories of a federal secretary who had sex for money on the side, so she had that going for her.

Sooooo, I guess the country would be less shameful if threatened women couldn’t purchase weapons for their defense?
Really!?! The stupid is strong in this one.

I can’t believe that violence against an unarmed man leads to profits for the gun industry.
I think I understand the problem. (Well, the most direct one, beyond “Marcotte has always been incomprehensibly daft or mad”, which I think is also the case.)
The problem is she thinks, for reasons I can’t even think hard about with hurting my head – because No Sane Reasoning Leads To This – that “the gun industry” has anything at all to do with creating violence.
Once you realize it’s the – sadly typical – mistake of “guns make violence”, rather than “violent people choose guns as a means to their violent ends”, it all makes sense.
That explains the invocation of “unarmed”, which otherwise is irrelevant.
It doesn’t explain – but I think the reasons are evident enough – how she just leaps from “violence against an unarmed black man” to gun sales without mentioning “rioting and looting”.
After all, rioting and looting are just natural responses to an unjust* police action.
(* Assumed arguendo.)
I almost feel sorry for her. Almost.

I’m going with R.C. Why are these women waiting for a Riot to happen before they get their Gun for Home Defense? Shame on them!
And may this…”Leftie” be placed in a Life or Death Situation w/o a Firearm.
Harsh? Too Bad. After all, that’s what THEY want to do to you and me, so, “Sauce for the Goose…”

Perhaps in her benighted little communist delusion she thinks the gun industry should just hand the guns out free of charge whenever there’s violence? No?

“And, like Kanye West, I somehow know who the fuck she is.”
Win.
And, like Kanye West, I’m trying desperately to forget.
