A local women’s-only conceal-to-carry gun course uses a real hands-on method to instill confidence in each student’s ability to handle confrontation, by keeping in mind a weapon is a the last resort. Dr. Lisa Orick-Martinez, communication studies professor and faculty advisor at Central New Mexico Community College, said she began instructing this course as a way to teach women the correct way to handle a weapon. “When I was younger, my older brother said, ‘You’ve got to have a handgun, you have to know how to shoot it, and you got to know how to protect yourself,’” Orick-Martinez said.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
