Here it is..

"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." --Cesare Beccaria, On Crimes and Punishment, quoted by Thomas Jefferson in Commonplace Book

    Have half of our elected officials of today been eating "stupid flakes" for breakfast ?
If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.  If you want something sugar coated...go eat a donut !  (anon)

Not sure what they have been eating but I know what they have not been reading and if they have read it they sure ain't following it.

"THE TREE OF LIBERTY FROM TIME TO TIME MUST BE REFRESHED WITH THE BLOOD OF PATRIOTS AND TYRANTS".
THOMAS JEFFERSON

That my two young sons may never have to know the horrors of war. 

I will stand for your rights as my forefathers did before me!
My thanks to those who have, are and will stand for mine!
To those in the military, I salute you!

all too many of the elected (note I did not say OUR) officials today have willfully worked against their oath of office. Among the things they swore to do was "support and defend the Constitution". All such laws passed contrary to the Constitution are not laws at all.

It's all  HIPOCRISY, The people crying the loudest about protecting the children, and only wanting people to be safe, carry concealed, have bodyguards that carry for themselves and their children, they don't want armed guards in the schools because they " are uncomfortable" with that but their children are protected by armed guards.  They scheme to export guns to Mexico to advance their agenda.


The sick part is if they cared about the chirrens they wouldn't have murdered

Hell, they know better, they act different than they speak We all know we need weapons to defends ourselves they do too. They have them. feinstein  got indignant when cruse questioned her about the amendments and said " what , do you want a bazooca"  NO, how about  JUST A SEMIAUTOMATIC WEAPON and a magazine that compares to the one I'll be facing.  They wanna be like the euro socialists nanny states. Basically they are stupid, or there are ulterior motives, I say the latter is true. They want the people to need them so as to control and have power. Had the founding fathers been this ignorant we would be speaking German or Japanese by now. We all know that if you shoot an idiot trying to kill you they will try to prosecute you. Ask Joe Horn of Pasadena Tx.
