The world is filled with violence. Because criminals carry guns, we decent law-abiding citizens should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will loose.

One who has a deaden conscience can never live within the confinements of the law.

I'm one of those who believe the bumper sticker: If you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns. The first people who are going to be in line to turn in their guns are law-abiding citizens. Criminals are going to be left with guns.

Very rarely do firearms restrictions affect criminals. They really only affect law-abiding citizens.

Law-abiding citizens value privacy. Terrorists require invisibility. The two are not the same, and they should not be confused.

Even during the rationing period, during World War II, we didn't have the anxiety that we'd starve, because we grew our own potatoes, you know? And our own hogs, and our own cows and stuff, you know.
