Three Out of Four ‘View’ Panelists Support Women Owning Guns for Protection

‘I think that’s the thing when you’re standing there, and if you’ve ever been in that situation where you have children and you go, what do I have?’

Stunner on The View: You Want to Protect Yourself Ladies? 'Get a Gun in Your Home!' (NewsBusters)

Something really remarkable happened on Tuesday’s edition of The View. Three out of the four panelists actually came out strongly in favor of a woman’s right to protect herself and her children with a gun! The one panelist who didn’t want a gun in the house? ABC Good Morning America co-host Lara Spencer. The three who favored owning a gun (Sherri Shepherd, Jenny McCarthy and FNC’s Juliet Huddy) all shared the real world threats that changed their minds about keeping a gun in the home for personal safety.

The segment began with The View airing a new ad from the gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety but instead of sparking the expected rant against guns from the usually liberal View crew, something very different happened.
