"This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty.... The right of self defense is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction." - St. George Tucker
"... arms ... discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property.... Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived the use of them." - Thomas Paine

"I enclose you a list of the killed,
wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington
in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of
any consequence ... I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the
number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This
difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every
soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy."
- Thomas Jefferson in a letter to Giovanni Fabbroni,
June 8, 1778

is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important
than the shield, and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is
the brain. All else is supplemental." Clint Smith
