I like to hear what people of the past have said about firearms, so post up them quotes that you may know or come across.

" A Free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of Independence from any who might attempt to abuse them,which would include their own government."

Exactly how I view each day.

Life's journey is NOT about arriving at the grave peacefully in a well-preserved body; but rather to skid in sideways, worn out and beaten, shoutin' HOLY SHAT what a ride!!!!!

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

"O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief... for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen."
- Mark Twain
