Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours. -- MaxedOutMama

I don't just want gun rights... I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance....I want the whole bloody thing. -- Kim du Toit

The most glaring example of the cognitive dissonance on the left is the concept that human beings are inherently good, yet at the same time cannot be trusted with any kind of weapon, unless the magic fairy dust of government authority gets sprinkled upon them.-- Moshe Ben-David

The cult of the left believes that it is engaged in a great apocalyptic battle with corporations and industrialists for the ownership of the unthinking masses. Its acolytes see themselves as the individuals who have been "liberated" to think for themselves. They make choices. You however are just a member of the unthinking masses. You are not really a person, but only respond to the agendas of your corporate overlords. If you eat too much, it's because corporations make you eat. If you kill, it's because corporations encourage you to buy guns. You are not an individual. You are a social problem. -- Sultan Knish

All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war. -- Billy Beck

The REAL Quote of the Week

In a comment to Bill Whittle's latest, Deterrence:
If Bush wins this election, I will have envisioned thoughts like this resonating through voting booths across our land.

If Kerry wins this election, I will have only thoughts like this only as my solace-somewhere someone else was able to beautifully articulate what I cannot for all of those who on October 6, 2004 crystalized what this election was about.

I will then move to the mid-west-Kansas, Colorado, anywhere. I live near downtown Los Angeles now with my husband and 15 month old son. I don't want to be near the next testing ground for Kerry's "lack o' premptive attack and global test" policy.

Alec Baldwin said he would move, I mean it.

It just isn't going to be worth it to me to risk the global test...
Thank you, Christine, for putting a great big exclamation point to Bill's essay.
