“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
US Constitution
“No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.”
Thomas Jefferson
“The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it.”
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.”
“Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty's teeth.”
George Washington
“The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government”
“The firearm is merely an efficient instrument that creates balance in an unbalance situation. ~Mark R. Gagnon, 2012”
