Kim Corban is a law-abiding gun owner.
She’s also a rape survivor.
After bravely telling her story and deciding to arm and protect herself and her family, Chris Cuomo – host of CNN’s Cuomo Prime Time – felt the need to weigh in on Twitter.

Cuomo responded to critics by saying they misconstrued his intentions and expressed his hope to reduce violent crime through gun control.
Read what I tweeted. You have my intentions wrong. A survivor story and the right to bear arms is not where we are stuck…We can’t get past this deadlock on all or none to make reasonable changes to help reduce deadly violence. Happy to talk if you have more questions https://t.co/y0VIsW4VYC
