SELF-DEFENSE NEWS WATCH

A well-regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.

We sleep safely at night because rough men and women stand ready to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

“Chaos is the law of nature, and order is the dream of man”

“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.”

Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty
