| "Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of the citizens to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be carefully used and that definite safety rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary government and one more safeguard against a tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible." --Senator Hubert H. Humphrey (1911-1978) |

| THE SECOND AMENDMENT 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. |

| "Waiting periods are only a step. Registration is only a step. The prohibition of private firearms is the goal." Janet Reno |
| "With that single line [President Clinton] proved to everyone who cares about the Second Amendment that he did not have a clue about what concerns them. The Second Amendment to the Constitution has nothing to do with duck or deer hunting. It has nothing to do with target practice or owning collector's weapons. The Second Amendment is a political right written into our Constitution for the purpose of protection individual citizens from their government. The lesson of the English Civil War and the American Revolution was that political freedom is ultimately based upon the courage and preparedness of those who would remain free. If the Lexington and Concord minutemen had not kept weapons, they could not have fired the shot heard 'round the world'. If the American colonists had not been trained in how to shoot and fight, they could not have become American citizens." -Newt Gingrich, 1995 |
| "Gun control has not worked in D.C. The only people who have guns are criminals. We have the strictest gun laws in the nation and one of the highest murder rates." Lt. Lowell Duckett: Special Assistant to DC Police Chief; President, Black Police Caucus, The Washington Post, March 22, 1996 |
