Exclamation A quote from our founding father...

"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." George Washington


Um ... I really do see any latitude here that can be interpreted as anything else.

I was thinking of that quote when i was reading the other post about the American service men and the brainwashing BS. Thank You Sir for defending our rights. That pretty much ends it.

I think the anti gunners who can read know this ! and are scared they will lose this case! and probably wishing the DC mayor and their boys hadn't appealed the 5th circuit courts decision!!!!!!!
