From the Barrel of a Gun

Sunday, October 3, 2010

On the coming elections...

And as much as I relish the thought that conservatism will make a sweep of congress in a month or so, the pragmatist and cynic in me says we’re delivering a few pumps to the sinking ship, and it will only forestall the inevitable.

We might get a respite, but a few million entrenched bureaucrats in government will make sure we don’t vote our way out of this mess. - the Cajun

Quotes

  • "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." - Mao Zedong
  • "America is at that awkward stage. It’s too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards.” – Claire Wolfe
  • "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams
  • "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." - P. J. O'Rourke.
  • "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." - Thomas Jefferson
  • "The right to buy weapons is the right to be free." - A. E. Van Vogt
  • "The price of freedom is the willingness to do sudden battle, anywhere, at any time, and with utter recklessness." - Robert A. Heinlein
  • "Statesmen are dead politicians. Lord knows we need more statesmen." - Opus the Penquin
  • "All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war." - Billy Beck

The Four Rules

1 - All firearms are always loaded.
2 - Never let the muzzle of a firearm point at anything you are not willing to destroy.
3 - Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
4 - Be sure of your target and what lies beyond it.
---Jeff Cooper

Four More Rules

1 - Don't go to stupid places.
2 - Don't hang out with stupid people.
3 - Don't do stupid things.
4 - Asking for trouble is a pretty good way to get it
---John Farnam
