Very interesting. Thank you.
Well done Girls on fire. I can relate to Tshepi.. For 20 years my husband wanted to get a firearm. And I swore I will never allow a firearm in my house. Well...We went to the range 1 time and I was hooked. After the first shot. I fell for it hard.... My daughter's are also hooked. Safety first and always. #Hasmy6

Go girls fight for our rights
Woman tend to be more safety conscious than men. I can attest to that. They are also less inclined to pull a gun unless absolutely necessary and don't generally show off their guns.
Very smart of you to disclose of the bat that you're married...mmm... otherwise 😉
