It is the ladies on our side that have the guns.

Martina Schuett has crimson red nails that match her lipstick. She owns a spray-tan business and dotes over her 1-year-old daughter.

She also has a semi-automatic handgun slipped inside a holster in her pants.

“It’s nice to be able to have that confidence and be an equal. That’s what guns do. They are an equalizer,” said the 30-year-old Schuett, Indianapolis. She is the owner of Tans By Tina and carries a Ruger LCP .380 at all times. “I am never going to be able to fight off a man by myself. But I can with a gun.”
