"To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death.
How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic."
-- Ted Nugent

I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools. Let's start with typewriters.

There are hundreds and hundreds of great, short and direct quotes...but I really like the one about the typewriters to throw at the liberal/marxists.
To: Eaker
Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must like men undergo the fatigues of supporting it.
-- Thomas Paine September 12,1717

"And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms ... The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants," Thomas Jefferson.
To: Eaker
"Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?"- Patrick Henry
To: Jeff Head
Good list, Jeff.
Here's my contribution: "The inseparable companion to the 'Right to Life' is the 'Right to Self-defense.' -- Eastbound

You are exactly right my friend.
We will have to depend on God in Heaven to help us to somehow arm (or to effectually be their arms) those innocents who, save for their own mothers, are incapable of self-defense and are being slaughtered by the millions based on the misbegotten decisions (in 99.99% of the cases) of the very ones who should be defending them.
To: groanup
Thanks for the BUMP BTTT!
To: Jeff Head
Thanks for the ping!
To: groanup
Pacifists are the parasites of freedom.
To: newgeezer
newgeezer said: "Agreed. Still, even "assault weapons" are no match for the stuff the jack-booted thugs have at their disposal."
Prior to the American Revolution, the colonists tarred and feathered those who were tempted to distibute the hated tax stamps of the Stamp Act. They did not attempt to take on the Regular Army. That did not take place until the overt use of government troops to deprive the militia in the area surrounding Boston of their arms.
The rest is, as they say, history.
There will never be enough JBTs to do every job which the government must do to maintain its legitimacy.
To: Jeff Head
When I can't reach my gun(s), I keep this handy!
My grandfather would make these from tree branches in upper Oregon. He'd added the spikes and varnished it!
