Not a true tale , but self defense related. I found the last paragraph of this article interesting, not that anyone here will have this problem.:D

"But if they break into your house while you're there and take you captive, it's something you never recover from. It's a tremendous hit on the relationship of couples," McGoey says. "I've talked to many, many women who blame their husbands for not protecting them. It's a really hard-hitting crime."

The above quoted person's website.

Lot's of anti-crime strategies, at a quick glance I didn't see anything about using a gun for self defense.:( Crime Doctor

i don't know what it is aboutsome women ... many simply don't even want to THINK about the possibility of a home invasion.

you try to talk to them about it, and they abruptly change the subject and just ignore you.

I signed my wife up for a Women of the NRA personal defense class taught by women . It really opened her eyes and helped pull her out of condition white . She will now back the car into parking spaces and look around before shutting down the motor and unlocking the doors . Still won't carry though...
