Try searching again only end the quote with "reach for my revolver"

If you find it - you probably won't like it.

But when politicians start talking about protecting us from the costs to "society" or about government protecting children from (fill-in-the-blank), then that is a good time to reach for your gun. - Sukhmani Singh Khalsa

You are probably thinking of something usually attributed to Herman Goering:

http://www.languagehat.com/archives/000398.php

"There is a famous quote, usually given as "When I hear the word 'culture' I reach for my gun" and attributed to either Goering or (less often) Goebbels. Whether or not Goering ever said it (he may have been fond of quoting it, or it may have been attracted to the more famous, and thus memorable, source), it originally comes from Act I, Scene I of Hanns Johst's play Schlageter (first performed for Hitler's birthday in 1933): "Wenn ich Kultur höre ... entsichere ich meinen Browning!" ('When I hear "culture," I release the safety catch on my Browning [revolver pistol -- thanks, Anton]!')."

Another site offers a similar account:

http://www.brainyencyclopedia.com/encyclopedia/h/he/hermann_goring.html

"The following quote is held to be oft-stated by Göring: "When I hear the word culture, I reach for my Browning (a gun)". Whether he used this phrase often or not, he did not originate it. The quote comes from German playwright Hans Johst's play Schlageter, "Wenn ich Kultur höre ... entsichere ich meinen Browning," "Whenever I hear the word culture... I release the safety-catch of my Browning!" (Act 1, Scene 1)"
