Default Female only gun camps on rise in US

Quote:
Gun camps for women are seeing a rise in attendance from female teachers, lawyers and even nuns thanks to a mum of two.
Quote:
Debbie Ferns travels the USA organising "Ladies Only Gun Camps" complete with pink weapons to encourage women to take up shooting.
Mrs Ferns, 55, from Tucson, Arizona, has also written a book called Babes with Bullets, Women Having Fun With Guns.



"Every woman in America should shoot a gun," said Mrs Ferns, who has more than 20 in her home collection.
She added "As long as the woman is a legal and law-abiding citizen I feel they should at least have a basic education in firearms safety."
The three-day camps, which cost £400, are exploding across the country and in January next year a US TV show will begin documenting the female gun trend.
"It started with one camp in 2004 and now we're planning 15 to 20 camps for 2010," said Debbie, who has helped recruit over 1,000 women to the shooting world.
"Women love it. We get schoolteachers, lawyers, nurses, women from all walks of life.
Quote:

"The people of our country have fought and died to protect our Second Amendment Rights.
"I think shooting sports empower women and improves their self-esteem.
"They also improve a woman's ability to protect herself and her family."
Quote:
"Everyone in America should know about guns and learn how to use them respectfully, after all how can you condemn something you have never tried?"
Quote:
"It's better to be educated than ignorant.
"The fact that a few wackos choose to use these guns illegally is not something I should be punished for."
