Quote of the day—Robert J. Avrech

If the Los Angeles riots taught us anything, it’s that you’re a fool if you count on the authorities to protect you in times of civil chaos — in fact, at any time. In the end, only I can protect my family.
 
I’m never, ever going to allow myself to be outgunned by the bad guys. All the gun laws that are on the books—and there are thousands of them—just make it that much easier for the barbarians to amass weapons and for law-abiding people like you and me to be at their mercy.

Before the experience of his family in the L.A. riots he did not own a gun. The L.A. riots were the motivating force to change that. For me it was Ruby Ridge.—Joe]

  1. I would like to hear more about your reaction to Ruby Ridge and how it affected your life.

    • I’ve done that in previous blog posts which are currently offline. I was going to try and get those back online this weekend but that might be delayed. My mom is likely to die in the next couple of days. I’ll respond when I’m able.

  2. An armed person is a citizen, an unarmed person is a subject, soon to become a statistic. Government cannot take away what was not theirs to give in the first place.
