Quote of the day–The Potowmack Institute

The “armed populace at large” becomes the libertarian fantasy of some people, arrested in political adolescence, who have an extreme difficulty accommodating to public authority and giving the “consent of the governed”. The fantasy is that this is a viable concept. The right to be armed outside of the law is a right and a fantasy that has to be maintained by defeating legislation. It succeeds because everyone else fails.

[They completely neglect to consider the concept of inalienable rights such as freedom of speech and other rights guaranteed by our Bill of Rights so it’s no wonder they arrive at the wrong conclusion in regards to firearms.  Thanks to Lyle for pointing these guys out.–Joe]
