Here's Jim Moran (D-VA) at a town hall meeting fielding a pretty basic question regarding Moran's seeming inconsistency with respect to two women's rights issues.
Congressman, I know you are pro-choice so why aren't you pro-choice when it comes to self-defense for woman?
Moran evades answering the question by prattling on about the length of the question(s) or something. Nice try, pal.
Women's self-defense is most certainly a women's issue so it's entirely legit to call out Moran on his hypocrisy.
Again, what the hell is a man doing telling a woman how best to defend herself? That's an angle that is underplayed by gun rights supporters in this whole debate and they do so to their detriment.

Great post. I hadn't thought of it that way.
Please don't insult the West Virginians.... Moran is from Virginia (Northern Virginia, bordering DC).
It is logically and emotionally inconsistent to support a victims right to choose for her body, but not her right to defend that body.

Anon, my sincere apologies. Corrected.
Doo Doo, spot-on, brother.
