Why Some Women Say No to Gun Training

Colion sits down with Jerah Hutchins, a seasoned firearms instructor, entrepreneur, and passionate advocate for the Second Amendment. With over 30 years of shooting experience, Hutchins shares her journey into the world of firearms.
Hutchins discusses her work with Clearing the Chamber, a company she founded to promote responsible gun ownership and personal defense training. She delves into the motivation behind her nonprofit, Women’s Awareness & Defense Endeavor (W.A.D.E.), which offers free self-defense training to single mothers, low-income women, and survivors of domestic violence.
Listeners will gain insight into Hutchins’s advocacy efforts, including her testimony at local and national levels in support of gun rights. She also talks about the unique workshops she has developed for women, such as “How to Protect What You’re Expecting” and “Prepare in What You Wear,” which aim to empower women through education and practical skills.
The conversation also touches on the broader implications of gun rights and personal safety in today’s society, highlighting the importance of the Second Amendment and responsible gun ownership. With her direct and passionate approach, Hutchins offers a thought-provoking perspective on self-defense and women’s empowerment.

[@saxon1177]

My dad went overseas once but before he left, he showed my mom how to use a 1911 Colt .45. One night some guy tried to come in through the bathroom window, but he didn't like the .45 pointing at him so he left. My mom was a 5 ft. 5" bad-ass.

[@schm147]

How crazy is that. A hunk of metal allowed an otherwise defenseless person to even the playing field and prevent a catastrophe. Illegal in most parts of the world.

[@onpoint2292]

@schm147 That's because a lot of the Powerful countries around the world were founded during a time when guns weren't widely used in warfare, and thus, the right to being able to wield them wasn't as important to defending your freedom. For example, take how easy it was for Muslims to take over parts of Africa, Europe, and Asia with just swordsmen, calvary, and bowmen under the leadership of warlords. And how easy it was for anyone, even if they were just a farmer, to pick up a sharp object to defend themselves. A sword, spear, or bow is better for warfare than a pitchfork or other sharp farming tool, but the improvement in stopping power isn't astronomical. Anyways, the point is that if a tyrannical government doesn't want a population to not have legal access to guns outside of the police force/ military, it won't seem that strange to the citizens because their cultural history did not stress the specific importance of firearms.

[@saxon1177]

@@onpoint2292 I agree with your viewpoint. I have to add that muskets were common among citizens early in America. They needed them to hunt and survive. When their own govt. turned on them, they were quickly used to defend themselves and if it weren't for that, the British may've won. This is why Americans are so adamant about the 2A, they know firsthand that your own govt. can become tyrannical. With the political temperature now, Americans are on edge because it appears their govt. is turning on them once again by way of taking away their rights and leaning toward socialism. The nonsensical attack on AR-15's, a common weapon of the times, as the musket was during the times of our country's founders, is an infringement of the 2A. They cannot be allowed to succeed.

Well recently my niece had a scare while her husband was at work, a wacko strung out on drugs had some kind of freakout in her backyard. We had talked about this before and I told her that IF she wanted a pistol for defense I would pay for it but she had to pass 4473. Well she took me up on this and she now owns a S&W MP 9EZ. I told her to make visits to the range to shoot it regularly so she feels comforable with it. That she doesn't do. But she does do something I strongly recommended. I told her to unload the pistol and when she is alone with husband at work and kids at school I told her to train herself to never touch the trigger, i.e. keep the "booger picker" out straight when she handles the pistol. To my surprise that she did. All weekend, she trained herself to pick up the pistol but NOT touch the trigger. She called me and said that now without even thinking about it she automatically keeps the trigger finger out straight. I couldn't be prouder of her.

[@kyze8284]

One of my more savvy coworkers watched me pick up a nail gun and IMMEDIATELY asked me what I have and if I carry often. Asked what he meant. "You didn't touch the trigger. Only people I know that don't touch the trigger of anything they pick up are responsible gun owners." The good news was they didn't have to yell at me for touching the trigger on the nail gun, they'd had someone do that with a safety nobody realized was broken and he launched a couple nails across the job site and freaked everyone out

Because they want freedom and protection that is given. It is probably better for them to not have guns in a DV situation anyway. Even trained policewomen can be a liability with guns, because it is easier for a male criminal to wrench the gun away from them.

I have been a government employee for close to 20 years in two different states. One with a very conservative reputation, and one with a very liberal reputation. In my experience, most government employees are not bad people. They are just people. That means they are going to act in their own best interest. Not yours. Theirs. There are government employees who take the idea of a public servant very seriously, but they are rare, and getting rarer. There are also those who actively work against freedom. This type is also a minority, but they are unfortunately growing. But, remember, don't ascribe to malice what can be explained by stupidity (or apathy).

When I was younger and had moved back in with my parents with my first son. I was working at a restaurant in a mall while waiting to go to nursing school. I dated a guy for a while and then he started becoming odd and trying to be a bit controlling. I broke up with him. I told my parents we were broke up but not what was going on. He started coming to my job and trying to get me to talk to him. I pushed the drink cart and did refills and had to go by each table so I couldn’t just avoid him. We had a lot of customers who were regulars. Many were cops. One noticed something was up with me and started asking me about it. I told him and the next time the guy came in he was there. He called a buddy who was also a customer when the guy left. They confronted him just outside the mall door and threatened him with arrest. They told me I had filed a restraining order against him and he didn’t understand that really there wasn’t a lot they could officially do and they made it sound like they would arrest him and he would go to prison and he stopped coming to work. I went to visit a friend in town and we were talking about my situation. I left to go home and this guy, who didn’t know them at all, stopped at their house and tried to get them to help him “get me back” by taking me camping, getting me drunk and him showing up. He told them he felt if he could just get me back in his bed one time we would be back together. Her husband freaked out about this and they called me the next day to come over to warn me. He was afraid the guy would kidnap me given the opportunity. I came home from work one day and there was a cake on the counter in the kitchen. I asked about it and my mom told me the guy had came by and asked about making me a cake there and bought the stuff and he and my 2 year old son baked the cake. I was terrified that she had let my son go with this guy. She told me that the guy bought the stuff and came back. I told her that if she ever let the guy take my son off or anything and I was able to get him back that we would disappear and they would never know anything about us. My dad heard part of this and came to my room and asked what happened. I told them about the stalking and wished I had before but I hadn’t wanted to alarm them. Big mistake not letting them know. I wish that things had been different back then and I had a firearm for protection and just thankful the guy finally gave up. He even started going out with a young girl I worked with. I tried warning her about him without getting into real details and it only took her a couple of weeks before she realized this and that he was very much using her as a way to see me at work without “getting in trouble.” My dad had always warned me about being aware of my surroundings and other protection type stuff but neither of us had really thought about the stalker type people.

However, that is followed by “We can do it later,” later never coming and then if something ever does happen and a knowledge gap is ever exposed, we see “why didn’t you show me that before?” Well, because you don’t let me help is why. I don’t bother with it anymore.

Ohhh, the instructors against permitless carry killed me for years! I always put it like this: You’re likely mad that the government wasn’t forcing students to patronize your business. From a business standpoint, I’m not going to say that I don’t understand but when you think about it, you’re still going to be able to teach that class. However, you will get to teach classes to a better set of students: those who want to be there! If anyone that has taught carry classes, you know the type of student there just to jump through a hoop so, you’re just babysitting. When permits are optional, you lose a lot of those types, fill the class with students who want to actually be taught and you can do a whole lot of things that typically aren’t covered in a cookie cutter class. From an instructor standpoint, that seems like a dream. All you have to do is adapt a lesson plan for this reality.

People severely under estimate how utterly extreme the culture differences there are between city, suburban, and rural environments. I have lived in all three. Like putting guns aside, the differences are night and day even spanning 30 miles.

I loved this conversation! Loved the explanation of submission and had the same trauma at 17 and I love going to the range and I to am 🎵 all by myself 🎶 in my lane lol

[@BeyondTheBoundsOutdoors]

Proud of you Jerah. Especially liked the discussion on submission. Definitely has a bad connotation to it, and I enjoyed hearing an empowered female articulate and spread the true meaning of that word. A man should always be bettering himself, because if he can't lead himself then how can he lead a marriage and why would a woman follow and submit.

[@richnesseler9080]

My wife and children all thank me for introducing them to firearms and we have our family day at the range many times

I have no problem with women on the detail provided, they are trained for the job, and they have the stature to shield the the asset! Unfortunately, most on trumps detail were DHS, there were only three SS agents on sight. I have CCW in state with CC, here, there are advantages to have a permit, as opposed to not.

My late wife was a vegan when I met her. She never did end up eating meat, but she did clear our house with my beretta once when she came home to an unlocked and partially opened door. She even cleared the attic! Super proud of her.

Took my girl to the range for the first time a few weeks ago, she’s been asking “when are we going back” ever since. I go about 3x per week. Going to start having her join at least one of those times. (Kinda hard for both of us to be out with a new baby)

When it comes to the Secret Service. Even I know my limitations. I am 5’9”. I know for a fact that if you have me protecting a 6’4” President, I’m not gonna be able to protect every inch of that person which is what my job is. I would find myself in a different roll, like on the CAT team or the CST team. So its not a feminist or sexist issue, its a physical limitation issue.

[@RespectMyAuthoritaah]

This is woman is so wrong. If a man raises his voice then he is automatically going to escalate into physical violence and the women are living in Narnia. What? How about women yelling at men and the men finally get tired of it and yell back? Like that never happens? I have personally been hit, kicked, yelled at and spit on by women because they feel completely safe in doing so. I am all about women protecting themselves, but let's not get it twisted.

[@michaeldavis8065]

I don't think she is referring to the one off instances. More like habitual occurrences. She also used the term verbal abuse. Yelling at your wife one time does not necessarily constitute verbal abuse and on the other hand, verbal abuse doesn't always require yelling. There was a lot more to what she said than what your comment let's on.

[@RespectMyAuthoritaah]

@@michaeldavis8065 I expected to receive comments from White Knights riding to the rescue of these tarnished Damsels in Distress. Anything to further the going progressive liberal narrative of "men bad".

[@Paul-uw7us]

I have an ex that would throw things at me when angry and punched me more than once. I left and her next man got knocked out by her and she FINALLY got convicted of spouse abuse. Women can be and are as abusive as men no matter what the media says. I know too many men who won't complain about taking abuse from a woman.

[@RespectMyAuthoritaah]

@@Paul-uw7us Yep, I have been there. My ex got progressively more violent because I did not report her to police or retaliate physically. I finally grew a pair and divorced her. It ruined me financially.

[@chelechele5871]

As a female firearm owner, I don't get the training I want because I find people in the gun culture intimidating and snobby. I like to think I'm semi-intelligent, yet you're afraid to ask questions for fear of being seen as stupid. Also, mistakes can be very costly. Just my perspective. Fortunately for me, my son is extremely helpful and patient with me and I have some friends who own and have helped. ❤

[@Nohcal]

There are teams that serve specifically,for people like you. Don’t ever feel you are less than. Other people understand that. Those people that train people like you.

[@coh2conscript851]

That's the main downside for it, yep. Some people are just a-holes.

Great conversation. A lot of great things were said…still listening but y’all nailed so many things. And I think the chipping away at our gun rights is truly a national security issue but feel too many don’t quite understand that yet. The majority that do don’t have the balls to say it yet either, or at least in positions or power and people with a mic/following.

[@alanstrawn732]

The measure of another person's intelligence is the degree to which they agree with you......This woman is a f^*king GENIUS!!😀

[@Front-Toward-Enemy]

Most men who own firearms aren’t training either. Most men who say they are training, are actually just practicing. Nothing wrong with that but there is a difference. Training is improving your skills while practice is done to make your skills instinctive. We as gun owners should try to do both.

[@derfnyc1]

It crazy for the longest time after I got my first pistol. I thought I was training and pretty recently for the most part I was practicing and thought it was training. Til I went to an outdoor range and was able to move around.

[@hueco5002]

@@derfnyc1even at an indoor range, you can generally start at low ready from one side of the bay and side step to the other while coming on target. It’s no replacement for actual running movement - but it is better than just standing stil.

[@barneyfyfe8313]

That statement is based on your personal knowledge somehow? How do you know who or how many have been trained? Some of us learned from our fathers. Some learned at summer camp, the military or by private instructor.

Thanks Colion

[@Dcdsuoblppugredc]

In my country there is a competition licence you can get for handguns and rifles, but it requires alot of fees and competitions and you have to helt with the competitions, aka unpaid work etc. There is also a hunterslicense you can get and that one is for life with no competition involved. However almost no handguns are allowed for hunting since they are not needed.

[@JohnDoeEagle1]

I've been doing this in a big way for 42 years since 1982. You could say I am not enamored in the least with most of these newcomers post Obama. Everybody is a badass and a overnight expert these days with nothing to back it up. Back in my day we were all highly trained, elite, purposeful experts and part of a very small community. None of that has changed except for the internet and a whole generation of gun owners full of themselves and their abilities. Love it most when they try to "school" or "educate" men like me on it. You own a modern striker fired 9mm pistol. I own over 350 of everything in every caliber you can conceive of including DA/SA semi-auto, S/A semi-auto, striker fired semi-auto, revolvers both double and single action, black powder cap and ball revolvers, rifles all types and calibers, shotguns in all configurations in 12 gauge etc etc. Are you really serious with all of that? Wait until you find out it doesn't stop there.....over 1,000 knives, swords and tomahawks, archery in crossbows, compound and traditional bows, .625 big bore blowguns, high powered air rifles, wilderness survival, combat experience (yes I lived) master reloader and bullet caster, gunsmithing, armorer work etc etc. Needless to say I don't have much use for them...especially "super chick". Let's just say I can see through this girls smokescreen fairly easily. BTW...sorry to report hon that ARs weren't even commonly owned until 2005 -. We all had them back in the 80's and 90's along with M14s, M1 Garands, AKs, UZIs, HK-91s, Steyr AUGs etc etc along with many other things she never even heard of. You can tell by the way she sets up her AR rifles from pics she's not from that era. They aren't even remotely similar.....

[@RichNotWealthy]

My parents were anti-gun and we lived in a low crime community so I didn't see a need for protection. My brother grew up to be an outdoorsman and had military training in use of firearms. He settled in a rural community, so He's always been a 2A guy. I lived in a medium sized Texas city in the worse part of town and still didn't own a firearm. It wasn't until i moved out to the country that I saw the need. Can't depend on the Sheriff's Office. And there are four legged critters trying to get into my stuff. But in the city we have two legged critters trying to get into our stuff... Sadly, my brother voted for the people who want to take away our guns🙄

[@noelsteele]

I live in the country. I carry a pistol on my property because snakes, and open carry elsewhere- mostly also because snakes. We do have cayote as well, but I have my lever action to deal with them. Got a bolt action for deer hunting, also on my property. Shotgun and AR-15 for home defense, truck defense. which yeah, you really don't need out here for that purpose. But now that they have invaders evenly distributed across the entire country... I still rather be prepared! If you don't actively practice your 1st and 2nd amendment rights, they'll take 'em away from you!

[@arapahoetactical7749]

City Streets in TX: Look at the history of TX, it's a cattle state and always was. Most cities began as cattle towns where ranchers would drive their cattle to market and the cattle took the easiest route. When cars were introduced, before there were paved roads, they followed the cattle trails which were later paved. That's why San Antonio is laid out like a spooked wheel.
