Firearm Refresher Course (feel free to add to the list)

Posted on 09/11/2009 2:04:20 PM PDT by Dallas

FIREARM REFRESHER COURSE

1. "Those who hammer their guns into plows will plow for those who do not." ~Thomas Jefferson

2. "Those who trade liberty for security have neither." ~John Adams

3. Free men do not ask permission to bear arms.

4. An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.

5. Only a government that is afraid of its citizens tries to control them.

6. Gun control is not about guns; it's about control.

7. You only have the rights you are willing to fight for.

8. Know guns, know peace, know safety. No guns, no peace, no safety.

9. You don't shoot to kill; you shoot to stay alive.

10. Assault is a behavior, not a device.

11. 64,999,987 firearms owners killed no one yesterday.

12. The United States Constitution (c) 1791. All Rights Reserved.

13. The Second Amendment is in place in case the politicians ignore the others.

14. What part of 'shall not be infringed' do you NOT understand?

15. Guns have only two enemies; rust and politicians.

16. When you remove the people's right to bear arms, you create slaves.

17. The American Revolution would never have happened with gun control.

“Every communist must grasp the truth, “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party. Yet, having guns, we can create Party organizations, as witness the powerful Party organizations which the Eighth Route Army has created in northern China. We can also create cadres, create schools, create culture, create mass movements. Everything in Yenan has been created by having guns. All things grow out of the barrel of a gun.”

Mao Zedong from http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Guns

If liberals say that guns don’t stop crime, ask them if they would be willing to hang a “this is a gun-free home” sign on their doors. Of course, they won’t be willing.

RH mentioned this in TEFL re: Lazarus Long's quotes...but I think it was still from MT. My favorite?

Something to the effect of "Small Change can always be found under seat cushions."

Better to have a gun and not need it then to need it and not have it.

The Second Amendment is not about the right to shoot, but about the right to shoot back.
