My friend Nicki of The Liberty Zone has a post up about the personal responsibility to protect oneself, in response to a 'letter to the editor' to her local paper by a GFW.

Do yourself a favor and go read how a REAL woman responds to a GFW moron.

"I'll tell you what war is all about; you've got to kill people, and when you've killed enough they stop fighting." -- Gen. Curtis LeMay

“The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.” -- General George S. Patton

“All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us....they can't get away this time. [USMC,when surrounded by 8 enemy divisions during the Korean War.]” -- General 'Chesty' Puller

“Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.” -- Sir Winston Churchill

“War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.” -- John Stuart Mill

“The essence of war is violence. Moderation in war is imbecility.” -- John A. Fisher

“The world will never have lasting peace so long as men reserve for war the finest human qualities. Peace, no less than war, requires idealism and self-sacrifice and a righteous and dynamic faith.” -- John Foster Dulles

Always remember...

Next to ending nazism, slavery,fascism, and genocide; WAR never solved anything.

If you want to know how we got to where we are in the current economic crises just watch this:

And note that one of the main culprits in this fiasco is Mr. Raines, who is now 'TEH ONE'S' main economic advisor....Be Afraid, be VERY Afraid.

Here is an even better breakdown of the whole mess:

And here is a PPS that shows how "creative financing" has caused this mess. (you'll have to hit "download original file" to get the graphics)

"[W]hereas, to preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole
body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike,
especially when young, how to use them; nor does it follow from
this, that all promiscuously must go into actual service on
every occasion. The mind that aims at a select militia, must be
influenced by a truly anti-republican principle; and when we see
many men disposed to practice upon it, whenever they can prevail,
no wonder true republicans are for carefully guarding against it."

-- Federal Farmer (Antifederalist Letter, No.18, 25 January 177

And, as always, those that study history can be assured of what the Founders really meant in the 2ND Amendment, and it isn't what the Brady bunch would have you believe.

An 80-year old man goes for a physical. All of his tests come back
with normal results. The doctor says, 'Chuck, everything looks great!
How are you doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with God?'

Chuck replies, 'God and I are tight. He knows I have poor eyesight, so
he's fixed it so when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the
bathroom, POOF! the light goes on. When I'm done, POOF! the light
goes off.'

' WOW, that's incredible,' the doctor says.

A little later in the day, the doctor calls Chuck's wife.

'Ethel,' he says, 'George is doing fine! But, I had to call you as I
am in awe of his relationship with God. Is it true that when he gets
up during the night, POOF! the light goes on in the bathroom and when
he's done POOF! the light goes off?'

'Oh, my God!' Ethel exclaims, 'He's pissing in the refrigerator again!'
