George Washington Gun Quotations

The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good.

Government is at best a petulant servant and at worst a tyrannical master.

If, in the opinion of the people, the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed.

Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself.

A free people ought...to be armed

A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite.

When firearms go, all goes - we need them every hour.

One's god dictates the kind of law one implements and also controls the application and development of that law over time. Given enough time, all non-Christian systems of law self-destruct in a fit of tyranny.

When any nation mistrusts it's citizens with guns, it's sending a clear message. It no longer trusts it's citizens because such a government has evil plans.
