I said only what I said. Stop inferring from my remarks. I said a man has a right to defend himself if attacked by a woman. I would not even hit my wife if she were to slap me. However, if a stranger, even a woman, appeared to me to be a mortal threat, the stranger would be shot. For instance, if she came at me with a knife or a gun, she would be shot. I'm not going to take the chance of getting killed to avoid shooting someone. She attacked and provoked a response. What should I do? Just allow her to kill me? But, concerning dressing provocatively: didn't you say you have daughters, Scott? Do you want them to go out in public dressed provocatively? If not, why not?
