All presidents but Jefferson have argued that their first job was to keep us safe. All presidents but Jefferson were wrong. If you read the Constitution, you will see that the President’s first job – as Jefferson understood well – is to keep us free.
-Judge Andrew Napolitano

Iran is a graphic example of why governments want you disarmed. 90 million people with nothing to resist with, ruled by Shia fanatics who kill women for having hair showing. We strike their leadership and now they are dancing in the streets. Never give up your guns.
– Louis vil LeGun
Expecting a carjacker or rapist or drug pusher to care that his possession or use of a gun is unlawful is like expecting a terrorist to care that his car bomb is taking up two parking spaces. – Joseph T. Chew
Carry your gun with a round in the chamber and spare magazines. Pass it on.
– Yehuda Remer (ThePewPewJew)
“There are people calling for the banning of assault weapons who could not define an ‘assault weapon’ if their life depended on it. Yet the ignorant expect others to take them seriously.” — Thomas Sowell

A recurring finding in research is that gun control only shapes who can lawfully defend themselves, not who commits violent crime.
-Taylor D. Rhodes
Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident proposition, that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story, who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim. If men are to wait for liberty till they become wise and good in slavery, they may indeed wait forever.
— LORD THOMAS MACAULAY
History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. —Dwight D. Eisenhower
Gun control laws don’t work. What is worse, they act perversely. While legitimate users of firearms encounter intense regulation, scrutiny and bureaucratic control, illicit markets easily adapt to whatever difficulties a free society throws in their way. Also, efforts to curtail the supply of firearms inflict collateral damage on freedom and privacy interests that have long been considered central to American public life.
— Daniel Polsby
Hypocrickets – That silence that ensues when the media hypocritically won’t cover something that doesn’t fit The Narrative™.–Kevin Baker
The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence. – John Adams
The world is filled with violence. Because criminals carry guns, we decent law-abiding citizens should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will lose. — James Earl Jones
A gun is a tool, Marion, no better or no worse than any other tool, an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that. — Shane
Congressman Randy Fine
For my next hat trick, I’m going to get Democrats to adopt the “if you love your dog, you’re a racist” position.
Oh wait, I already did that.
Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times.
We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them.
For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences.
The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it.
If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser. –9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld
Echoing Tacitus’:The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.
America needs fewer laws, not more prisons. — James Bovard
“The endlessly repeated argument that most Americans are the descendants of immigrants ignores the fact that most Americans are NOT the descendants of ILLEGAL immigrants.” — Thomas Sowell
Liberalizing concealed carry laws won’t lead to a return to the Wild West – though it wouldn’t be bad if it did. … in 19th Century cattle towns, homicide was confined to transient males who shot each other in saloon disturbances. The per capital robbery rate was 7% of modern New York City’s. The burglary rate was 1%. Rape was unknown. — David Kopel
Hypocrisy is believing the First Amendment protects flag burning, but the Second Amendment doesn’t protect owning an AR-15.–unattributed
