Yeah, that has to be one of the stupidest things I've seen from a journalist.
The information they had was a man threatening a woman with a knife, obviously they will be armed when a deadly weapon is involved.
I don't think I'll ever understand the thought process behind women defending abusive partners either, especially in a situation as extreme as this.
