“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.”

Rock Chartrand –
That isn’t a right to life. It’s an entitlement to enslave.
A right to life means no one may kill you. It doesn’t mean others can be forced to feed, house, or sustain you.

You’ve created an obligation imposed on others by force.

“It is not the truth of Marxism that explains the willingness of intellectuals to believe it, but the power that it confers on intellectuals in their attempts to control the world. And since, as Swift says, it is futile to reason someone out of a thing that he was not reasoned into, we can conclude that Marxism owes its remarkable power to survive every criticism to the fact that it is not a truth directed, but a power directed system of thought.”
-Sir Roger Scruton

― Robert H. Jackson, associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court in
West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette
