More self-defense tips from our Vice President

Joe Biden recommends a pair of 12 gauge warning shots for women in danger



Joe Biden is a big fan of shotguns. A few weeks ago, he recommended the weapons for post-earthquake protection and defense during societal collapse. Now, he's telling women that they should just fire a couple of random warning shots if they hear scary noises.

"You don't need thirty rounds to protect yourself," Biden claims. "Buy a shotgun. Buy a shotgun." Biden claims that “If you want to protect yourself, get a double barrelled shotgun, have the shells of a 12 gauge shotgun, and I promise you –as I told my wife. We live in an area that’s wooded and somewhat secluded. I said ‘Jill, if there’s ever a problem, just walk out on the balcony here…and fire two blasts outside the house. I promise you, whoever is coming in is not gonna.” That's super advice. Maybe not so great if you've got a two round capacity and are faced with two or more intruders carrying 7-round handguns, but hey, you can't win 'em all. UPDATE: Biden also fails to mention that in most areas, firing a "warning shot" is a felony. Check out the story of Marissa Alexander who, last May, fired a warning shot near her husband - a man who was beating her at the time. She was sentenced to twenty years behind bars for her actions. Remember: Your Vice President's advice may be the fastest ticket to a two-decade prison stay.
