When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination. – Thomas Sowell
If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government that is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself. — James Madison
The bias against armed self-defense is one of the most insidious forms of victimization of women. – Dr. Michael S. Brown
When you sit down to negotiate on what you already have, you lose.

Maybe the people saying Black people are too stupid to get an ID to vote…
are the racists.
Maybe the people saying married women can’t figure out how to get a birth certificate…
are the sexists.
Maybe the people calling everyone else a threat to democracy…
are the ones trying to rig it.
Maybe the people obsessed with “equity” while ignoring merit…
are the ones holding people back.
Maybe the people who can’t name a single limit on immigration…
are the extremists.
Maybe the people who say they’re fighting for the working class…
while flying private, actually aren’t.
Maybe the people who say they care about the poor…
have run every major American city for 50 years and made them ALL worse.
Maybe the people calling for more gun control…
travel with armed security paid for by taxpayers.
Maybe the people who claim to love science…
but can’t define what a woman is aren’t following it.
Maybe the people demanding unity while calling half the country fascists…
don’t actually want unity.
Maybe it was never about justice, equity, tolerance, or democracy.
Maybe it was always about power.
And maybe the way you know that, is that they never stop accusing YOU of exactly what THEY are doing.
Matt Van Swol
“Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease. Against stupidity we are defenseless.” – Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. – Mark Twain
Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense?

If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?
— Patrick Henry
Any gun in the hands of a decent person is no threat to anybody, except to bad people – Charlton Heston

“A professional soldier understands that war means killing people, war means maiming people, war means families left without fathers and mothers. All you have to do is hold your first dying soldier in your arms, and have that terribly futile feeling that his life is flowing out and you can’t do anything about it. Then you understand the horror of war. Any soldier worth his salt should be antiwar. And still there are things worth fighting for.”
-General H. Norman Schwarzkopf Jr.
“Arms are the only true badges of liberty. The possession of arms is the distinction of a free man from a slave.”

Anyone who tells you you’re on the “wrong side of history” for supporting gun rights and their accessibility to citizens clearly aren’t students of history, or even passive observers of it.
Has anyone else noticed how low-income families have no trouble producing a birth certificate for EVERY member of their household who qualifies for EBT benefits? – Marinda Vannoy
