"Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be very carefully used and that definite rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against the tyranny which now appears remote in America but which historically has proven to be always possible."

- Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, MN, campaigning for the 1960 Democratic Presidential Nomination

These days a man with JFK's political views couldn't get a job cleaning up the trashed American flags at a democrat party convention.

Ironically, it was his bro — Teddy — who helped push the liberal agenda in the Senate for nearly half-a-century.
