Defiance: “Without a rifle you are nothing, worthless, you are waiting for death, any minute, any second.” -Tuvia Bielski (from the book ‘Defiance’)

Thanks for that link.....added the movie to my Netflix queue.
There is a great quote over there:
Edmund Burke reconsidered in the light of 20th Century funeral pyres.
“Remember: Evil exists because good men don’t kill the government officials committing it.” — Kurt Hofmann.
And of course if the question is “What evil?” Rummel has the answer.

I’m sure Tuvia was/is a nice fella. And his heart’s in the right place. But he could have done a better job finishing that thot: “ Without a rifle, shotgun, pistol, revolver and all the other weaponry you can get your hands on, and the willingness to use it in defense of yourself, family, property, neighborhood, you are a waste of space and-——the rest”
If the Ukes show some stiff spine Pootin will fold his tent and try something else later. With the absense of gun muzzles pointing at his “exercizers” he’ll think he has a free hand.
