All the more reason to, as Patrick Henry said, "guard with jealous attention" this right and the force is represents against the tyrant of any stripe.
And for any "gun grabbers" out there in or out of government ... Molon Labe!

"Germans who wish to use firearms should join the SS or the SA: ordinary citizens don't need guns, as their having guns doesn't serve the state." ~~Heinrich Himmler
"If someone is so fearful that they are going to start using their weapons to protect their rights, it makes me very nervous that these people have weapons at all." ~~Henry Waxman
"One of the basic conditions for the victory of socialism is the arming of the workers [read communist party] and the disarming of the bourgeoisie." ~~V.I. Lenin, Collected Works
"I don't think everybody has a right to a weapon which can be used to kill innocent people and maybe threaten the life of a president of the United States." ~~Henry Waxman
"Make mass searches and hold executions for found arms." ~~V.I. Lenin
"We are going to hammer guns on the anvil of relentless legislative strategy! We are going to beat guns into submission!" ~~Chuck Schumer
"If the opposition disarms, well and good. If it refuses to disarm, we shall disarm it ourselves." ~~Stalin, 1927
"If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate for an outright ban (on firearms), picking up every one of them, 'Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them in', I would have done that." ~~Senator Diane Feinstein (holder of one of the few concealed pistol permits given only to the very well-connected in California.)

"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 will never be allowed to command the Party." Mao Zedong
The gun grabbers today, the ones really oushing the agenda, understand these thoughts and motivations (of both Mao and the rascals you quoted). It is only a matter of time before they turn to the principles and teachings of their icons. For whom they are the modern understudies.
In the hands of free people ... along with faith in God and an understadning of unalienable rights ... the bain of every tyrant.
Hope you and yours had a great Mother's Day.
I think the founders got it right. The first amendment enumerates some "basic" rights; the second amendment establishes the means by which we may defend those rights; the teeth, if you will.
To the latter day statists/experts, our Constitution and Bill of Rights are a nuisance to be overcome. Gramsciian incrementalism appears to be their M.O. They are hard at work in EVERY institution in our country. We have all been cowed in no small part by a compliant media ready, willing, and very capable of carrying the message.

Us. We're it. And there's enough of us to turn it around if we will just stand up. Those enemies know it and are doing all they can to keep us in the dark and unaware of one another's presence ... but there are enough and we are awakening.
Best Fregards.
