1. JAMES MADISON:“Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government“.
2. GEORGE WASHINGTON : “We should not look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors, and for the purpose of profiting by dearly bought experience”.
3. JAMES MADISON: “Americans have the right and advantage of being armed- unlike the citizens of other countries whose governments are afraid to trust the people with arms“.
4. GEORGE WASHINGTON:“Firearms are second only to the Constitutional in importance; they are the peoples’ liberty, their teeth”.
5. JAMES MADISON:“It is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged to the provisions against danger, real or pretended, from abroad. If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy. We are right to be alarmed at the first experiment upon our liberties”.
6. DANIEL WEBSTER:“It is my living sentiment, and by the blessing of God it shall be my dying sentiment, independence now and independence forever”..
{ NOTE; An apt warning in view of the current world situation and this administration under Obama, who has an anti gun voting record, though he swears to uphold the Constitution, go figure. Watch what they do, NOT what they say. http://www.nagr.org/UNTreaty_Pledge1.aspx?pid=4b
