Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force.
Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.
Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance,
they are the peoples' liberty's teeth.
~Thomas Jefferson~
A morsel of genuine history is a thing so rare as to be always valuable.
~James Madison~
I believe there are more instances of the abridgment
of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power
than by violent and sudden usurpations.
~Abraham Lincoln~
America will never be destroyed from the outside.
If we falter and lose our freedoms,
it will be because we destroyed ourselves.
