Washingston State concealed-carry permits skyrocket for women

Katie Oittinen has a Concealed Pistol License. “It's important for me to have a CPL ... to protect myself and my son. ... You can't count on a sheriff to show up in a timely manner.”

For Katie Oittinen, a turning point was an afternoon two summers ago when a stranger walked into her living room. When he encountered Oittinen and her dog, a Great Dane mix, the man fled.
But what really scared Oittinen, who was pregnant, was what happened next: She called the police. They said they would come to her Portland home. And they never did.
So after her son was born and she and her husband moved to Granite Falls in Snohomish County, the 29-year-old new mom decided to get a license to carry a concealed handgun. “That was a wake-up call,” she said. “It’s things like that that make you wonder: ‘Who can you really rely on to protect you and your family?’ Pretty much yourself.”
Oittinen is part of a rush of Washington state residents — and especially women — who have obtained concealed-carry permits in record numbers.
