    Default I wish that we had more judges like this.

    Judge to Crime Victim: Arm Yourself!
    Citing the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling clarifying that individuals have the right to possess firearms to defend themselves, a Tennessee judge advised the victim of an aggravated robbery last week that she should learn how to use a gun for personal protection.

    Good advice. I hope she takes it; I hope a lot of people begin to assert their rights following the Heller decision.

    I like how this judge thinks.
    An armed society is a polite society.

    Good advice. Everyone should take responsibility for his or her own safety. LEOs are not our personal bodyguards.

    Very true. My CCW instructor, who is a retired cop, referred to cops as armed historians. Most of the time they get there after the crimes already over, take a report, then looks for the bad guy. Which is very true, police have a hard job and can not be every where all the time. Which is exactly why I carry. I want to be able to prolong my life long enough for them to get to the scene.

    Sorry, you're too late because there actually was another thread recently posted here about this story. Nevertheless, I applaud the judge for having the courage to do the necessary, but politically incorrect thing here. Too many government officials allow political correctness to muzzle and restrain them, for fear of being labeled extremist. Fortunately, this judge isn't one of them.

    Sorry for the repeat. I poked around and didn't see anything. I guess that I didn't poke enough.
