And If He Says "No?"

At the end of June, Pearce dropped by the house, asking my husband if he knew of my plans and if he approved.

Initially, I'm horrified. What if we had a bad marriage, and I wanted the gun for self-protection? Why should he get to overrule my decision?

Kim Gandy, the president of the National Organization for Women, sees it differently. It's never wise to bring firepower into an abusive household, she says. And if New Jersey's law requires spousal notification, victims get time to prepare - or leave.

So that's the official word from the nation's leading "feminist" organization? If a woman wants a gun she needs to get her husband's permission?

You've come a long way, baby!

Now get me another beer.
