A Facebook post from some hyped-up gun group says I should show my patriotism by exercising my God-given right to carry a weapon. Why in heaven's name should I carry a gun? If someone came up to me in Walmart and shoved a Glock whatever in my ribs, a gun in my purse would do me no good whatsoever because I'd never be able to rummage through everything and get it out before he knocked my block off. |

Not what you'd call a "deep thinker".
ALL rights come from God, and the right to life (and to defend and preserve that life) is the FIRST right listed in our charter, the Declaration of Independence.
And THAT document is the foundational ethos of this nation, CHISELED IN GRANITE. |

| Sad that she (assumed female due to purse comment) has such a victim mentality! Her comment ranks right up there with wetting your pants if attacked by a rapist! Better she give up than take a defensive action. Her ignorance is surpassed by her unwillingness to acknowledge that others are not as helpless as she desires to be. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
