India: Thousands of women aged 12 to 35 receive shooting instruction
"Durgavahini, the women's wing of Bajrang Dal, completed its 11-day arms training here Sunday. The training camp was organised to impart training to women to operate rifles and other long-range weapons. Inside the premises of "Saraswati Shishu Mandir", around 250 young girls were trained in Judo, rifle-shooting and many other self-defence techniques."
"Started on June 19, the camp aimed at training more than five thousand females in the 12-35 age group from across the country. The purpose was to make women competent in self-defence tactics so that they could face any ordeal with ease." http://www.navakal.com/news/national/200206301024.asp
"If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege." - Arkansas Supreme Court, 1878
