Quotes of the Day

Not a Slave
”No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion.”

~James Burgh

”To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them.”

~George Mason

”Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! - I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”

~Patrick Henry

”An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.”

~Col. Jeff Cooper

    I know that is probably just an actress in the photo, but I am taken by the look on her face. In her eyes.

    I never want to see that with a gun pointed at me like that.

    Not a slave indeed.

    It's tough to be a Citizen when one is stuck with a bunch of Slave Owning Politicians running things. Got Ammo?

    This is such an important concept. I am a citizen, not a subject (slave). People forget that one of the goals of the post Civil War southerners was to keep the freed slaves from owning firearms.

    Grace and Peace
