(h/t to The World's Most Dangerous Librarian)

Apparently, there is some better alternative out there - as a preventive measure, mind you - than a gun for a mother to protect her children from abduction. Search their website (if you can stomach it), and let me know if you can find what said alternative is. I could not.

What I did find is an biased organization preying on what is arguably every mother's greatest fear to further an anti-gun message. I found an organization masquerading as part of something entirely different that has the ability to reach people instantly with an unbiased message. I found a fucking mouthpiece for the antis doing what only mouthpieces and Montezuma's Revenge can do: spew shit.

If I'm wrong, please point out how.

*********************************

I wrote a rather inquisitive letter to that organization via their website in an effort to discover what these "preventive measures" they speak of actually are. I also copied it to post here, but instead of dropping into a Word document I started blogging first. A couple of copy/pastes later I realized I no longer have the letter. *facepalm*

Oh well. If I ever get a response I'll let you know.
