of this visitation?

You've managed to miss my recommendations that if you wish to argue against reasonable restrictions on access to firearms, you do it without exploiting my life and my experience.

I have been abducted, choked and sexually assaulted in a situation where I expected to be killed and managed to escape.

You, I presume, have not. I understand that you say your sister has. Perhaps if she wants to argue a position on firearms control, she could come here and do it.

Meanwhile, you are presuming to speak for me. You don't. Your presumptions and your alleged concern are both unwanted. Your words are offensive, in their lack of whole-truthfulness and their misrepresentation, both to sexual assault victims, and by extension women, and to advocates of firearms control.

I note your concern for "single, small young women" (age and marital status having zero to do with the point you were making) and wonder whether your fantasy life hasn't leaked out onto your keyboard.
