Firearms are not for everyone, particularly many women. However, with proper introduction and training women can learn to appreciate the use of this tool for their safety. The problem many have, myself included now that I'm a civilian, is dealing with the issue of taking a life, either personally or legally. Learning defensive skills and self awareness has many benefits which override the need for a firearm.

I'd like to think my friends and I are.

This is going to be a great novel! So much reality is woven into the plot that it will educate as well as entertain. The fight scenes in which my colleagues engage are epic.

Always been a huge fan. What a role model. Thank you Denzel.

Incredibly brave woman. It would take a special helping of courage to face this person in court.

It's great that these women have kept in touch all these years. Hope she makes it through the process. Not too many people of color in our congress.

I can certainly relate. My Mom kept my hair buzzed pretty short growing up but as you can see from my photo I have let it grow. I tried shaving my head but that was not only a pain but every black guys was doing it. My style is definitely wash and shake!!

Jada is a badass woman in real life so this is perfect for her. Hope she is a regular

It is! And white people have no idea. Thank you though for sharing some of our history.

I gotta see this guy. Hope he comes to S. California.

I'd love to have seen her in person. I idolized her growing up. My Mom was so angry at times about the way she was treated by Ike but I reminded her that he was dead and she was thriving. 😁

We all can learn from this, not just students.

Paul Harvey's dedication is legendary. His comments are particularly important in our society today. Please share..

Wow! What we can learn from animals!!

I can only imagine the number of people with whom he interacted and the experienced changed lives. I remember seeing him on the Big Bang Theory. He had quite a sense of humor. The student who interacted with Hawking's grad students had to have been blown away with the opportunity.

Which is your favorite? Either the flamingo or seal for me!

Now that I'm retired and living so close to the beach I am going to get a dog, actually two, so they can keep each other company when I'm gone. I don't travel anymore and my Mom lives just down the street. She moved from Los Angeles to a small apartment in the home of my friend Jessica Fukishura. This video convinced me!!

I too hope I have such a relationship Rebecca. ′She may not know who I am, but I know who she is, and she is the love of my life”

How cute is this!!!!?

Looks delicious.
