<< Nor did Epicure. She said she needed "help." Well, yeah, I think an 18 year old girl who marries a 58 year old man, the man dies of cancer, she has a baby,>>>

So the "help" she needs is what? Looks to me she clearly can take care of herself.

Epicure's original post rambled on about gun ownership AND that is what I took issue with;

I hope the women gets some help- she clearly needs it. I know the gun nuts love stories like that-- and I haven't the heart to post the hundreds of gun suicide stories I read, that really put in perspective how great it is to have weapons easily accessible. For every "atta girl" invasion, you've got a lot of "oops, my 5 year old just shot his brother in the chest and killed him" stories, and those terrible "my despondent 14 year old shot himself in the head."

Epicure clearly is mixing issues here; gun safety and self protection.

I ask again Sam, what help is it that you think this woman needs?
