4. Deterrence and resistance to tyranny (talk.politics.guns Official Pro-Gun FAQ)

"Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God."
-=(Thomas Jefferson, motto found among his papers)=-

"Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily
win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory
will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment
when you have to fight with all the odds against you and only
a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case.
You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because
it is better to perish than live as slaves."
-=(Winston Churchill,"The Gathering Storm,"1948)=-
