For those of you who DO NOT believe in the 2nd Amendment, how would you suggest this woman should have defended herself? Yell? "Pepper spray?" Curl up in a ball and pray?
I took a gun safety class here in TX and the instructor, a law enforcement officer, told us that gas stations have become very convenient locations to commit crime. He urged us to always keep one’s eye on their six while pumping gas, to always keep your passenger doors locked while pumping to prevent theft of items while you are distracted, and to walk inside the station immediately if any weird looking characters are milling about.

I take that advice every single time I gas up.
I was pumping gas in a rough part of town and happened to look down to see what sure looked like a puddle of blood. Just missed the action I guess.
Having to be constantly vigilant and on high alert eventually takes its toll.
