"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every
assumption of authority. It is
hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people
against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to
govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but
they mean to be masters." - Daniel Webster

"As a card-carrying member of the
liberal media, producing this piece was an eye opening experience.
I have to admit that I saw guns as inherently evil,
violence begets violence, and so on. I have learned,
however, that in trained hands, just the presence of a gun can be a real
"man stopper."
I am sorry that women have had to resort to this, but wishing it wasn't so
won't make it any safer out there."
- Jill Fieldstein (CBS producer, Street Stories:
Women and Guns)

you've got to resist, you're chances of being hurt are less the more lethal
your weapon. If that were my wife,
would I want her to have a .38 Special in her hand? Yeah."
