She Used to HATE Guns, Now She’s Getting Her Rhode Island Concealed Carry Permit.

As you may be aware, this is National Shooting Sports Month. Yes, that means you should get your ass away from your screen and out to a range somewhere and shoot a gun. Or two. Or more. This month is also an ideal time to take someone who’d new to shooting with you. Teach them the four rules. Get them started the right way. Then watch the smile on their face the first time they pull the trigger. The more shooters and gun owners we have, the easier it is to defend and extend our Second Amendment rights.

If you need help in convincing that noob you know to go out to the range with you, this video from YouTuber Gothix is a great tool for doing just that. Gothix — AKA Vanessa Rosa — is relatively new to guns and the whole shooting thing. But over the last couple of years since getting started, she’s come a long way.

And she’s done it in the deep blue gun rights hell that is Rhode Island. In fact, she’s now the Rhode Island state director for Women for Gun Rights. Watch the video and listen to hurdles she has to clear in order to buy a gun, ammo, and then, finally, take the test for her concealed carry permit in her benighted little state. If she can do it where she lives, so can you. And so can the person you’ve been trying to convince to go to the range with you.
