Free men do not ask permission to bear arms.<\/p>\n<p>4. An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.<\/p>\n<p>5. Only a government that is afraid of its citizens tries to control them.<\/p>\n<p>6. Gun control is not about guns; it&#8217;s about control.<\/p>\n<p>7. You only have the rights you are willing to fight for.<\/p>\n<p>8. Know guns, know peace, know safety. No guns, no peace, no safety.<\/p>\n<p>9. You don&#8217;t shoot to kill; you shoot to stay alive.<\/p>\n<p>10. Assault is a behavior, not a device.<\/p>\n<p>11. 64,999,987 firearms owners killed no one yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>12.
