How gun control hurts women

Brits aren’t known for their love of firearms. In fact, we tend to hate them. When it comes to American gun culture, the majority of us look on with a mixture of horror and confusion when we see a Second Amendment activist walking through an airport with a rifle strapped to them. To many of us, it all seems so vulgar.

But in the wilderness of West Virginia, I recently found myself learning how to shoot an AR-15 alongside friends. There’s an exception to every rule, and I am apparently the exception to the rule that all Brits hate guns. Guns transcend the lines of nationality and gender.
