Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, seven twenty one now. According to a Fox News
poll last month, concerned about the border increased most notably
since February among those under the age of thirty, Black voters, Democrats,
Hispanic voters, and women twelve points higher. Women are concerned
about the border because they are seeing crime coming across
that border. Nobody is closer to it than people like
(00:21):
Gary Humphries. He's the owner of a gun shop in
Del Rio, so when you are on the border, you
know exactly what you're talking about. He was featured in
this Fox News article. A recent Fox News article about
that increase in female gun purchases, he joins us, Now, Gary,
good morning, Gary Humphries. Can you hear us?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yes, sair, good morning.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Okay, there you are good to have you, Hey, Gary,
thanks very much. Tell us about this surge. You've seen
a lot more females in the shop right about now.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Huh, Yes, sir, we have a shop here and right here,
you're right here in bill Real. Over the past the
trend has really changed and we're just seeing.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Sir. Yes, sir, we got your boat.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Okay, Yeah, the trend has changed over the few years.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I've been in business for.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
A long time and we get different trends and right
now having a lot of first time buyers women, they're
really relative real saate.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
And we go all Clantonio quite a bit.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Women travel down there is going doctors and shopping and stuff.
And when you get into the big cities you have
a lot of crime and parking lots and people getting muggs.
So it's pretty pretty serious. A lot of them are
concerned about it, and you have a lot of first
time buys coming in.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I was going to ask you about the age, you know,
are you seeing younger women, because I would say presumably
older women in Texas they've long been aware of guns.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Yeah, if we're having some older single women, widows and
stuff purchased a few guns.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Some of them have.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Come in and asked us some gun training. We don't
do it on the friends and stuff. I'll personally do
it and help them, and but I do recommend that
if they do have a gun or a purchase one,
that they get from training, and also recommend that they
go ahead and do the concealed handgun license offered by
the state. Uh you learn the laws and UH you
(02:33):
know when to shoot, when not to shoot, and how
to use your gun and stuff. So it's pretty important
to know the laws. Just keep yourself out of trouble.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
But young girls, having a lot of young girls coming
in and that little.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
By themselves and stuff and travel by themselves, and they're
near by them just concerned about all.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
The crime that's going on in this country.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
We're all basically getting almost a lawless.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Well dary, you're right, obviously, And when these young girls
come in and they are they telling you specifically they're
worried about the number of criminals that are coming across
the border, or are they just talking about crime in general?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Crime in general?
Speaker 3 (03:11):
There in Delle Rail, we don't really see a lot
of we're not having any problems. We have a governor
abbit has sent in a lot of highway patrol.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Units here and there.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
They're you know, pretty pretty heavily armed, and anyway, the
governor of Florida has sent highwatrol units out.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
To help out on the border. So we're send a
lot of them here and they're all over. But when
we had that influence.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Of the aliens that come in, they had them under
the bridge down to the or the ventory had about
fifteen thousand of them and wouldn't let them get out
of there, and the administration governmentministration wouldn't do anything about it,
and wouldn't do anything.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
So Governor abbit sending in.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
The highway patrol and they put up a bear arcaid
with their high with pro units and shop shop the
income of all of aliens.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Oh yeah, that's a that's a that's a federally managed
port of jury there. But it's the ones who come
across the border illegally into uninhabited for the most part,
into ranches. They have long armed themselves. But I will
tell you any woman in Texas who travels the long highways,
you have to worry about a breakdown. You have to
(04:28):
worry about the illegal alien criminal gangs that have overtaken
this state. You do not travel outside a nearby police
officer without having yourself armed in the state of Texas.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
If you're a woman that's cract uh going into the
cities uh Houston, probably probably see a lot of it
local air. When a woman goes in to the shop
and sit in a grocery store and parking lot, they
need to be really aware of individual setting a car
out in the parking lot and you know, stay away
(05:02):
from them, stay with a group of people. Don't just
be off by yourself somewhere keeping getting mugged, you know,
and especially at night, and just need to stay out
out home at night and out grocery store anything.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
It's pretty rambling around the well.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Gary Humphries, owner of Humphrey's Gun, shot down there in
Del Rio, thank you for letting letting us know what's
going on. We certainly appreciate you sounding the uh the
word out there and telling young people, particularly young females, Yeah,
go ahead and get those guns, but learn and get
some training as well so you know exactly how to
use it to protect yourself. It can be a dangerous place. Gary,
thanks for the time. We appreciate you.
