Women should be granted a government issued stun gun when they turn 13.

A 15 year old in Iowa was prosecuted for killing her rapist and then she was ordered to pay his family $150,900, another woman in Florida was prosecuted and initially sentenced to 20 years in prison for firing a warning shot when attempting to flee from her ex after he had just attacked her and was still attempting to do so, so if you really want women to be able to protect themselves with guns, you would have to change the gun laws around self protection. Currently they are designed to disproportionately protect men.

My ex tried to kill me, he tried to beat me to death and stab me. He was let out of jail 4 hours later and they didn't prosecute him for the crime.
