Gun Quotes (or more accurately, weapon quotes)
« on: May 20, 2015, 01:05:28 AM »
Thought this would be a good thread to see what comes out of the woodwork.  A good link.

http://www.quotations.com/guns.htm

A good quote

Every citizen should be a soldier.                         
               This was the case with the Greeks and Romans,               
               and must be that of every free state.                       

                                                 Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)

Jane Fonda wanna be reporter to military sniper, "what do you feel when you deliberately shoot another human being?"  Snipers reply, "recoil".

My buddy the captain in desert storm when I asked what was the best part of being a tanker...."sending rounds downrange with hate and discontent"

Already a couple of the faithful have sent in checks for a 
               foundation memorial to the innocents who perished at the   
               hands of the ninja at Waco. ... I have been criticized by   
               referring to our federal masked men as "ninja" ... Let us     
               reflect upon the fact that a man who covers his face shows 
               reason to be ashamed of what he is doing. A man who takes it
               upon himself to shed blood while concealing his identity is
               a revolting perversion of the warrior ethic. It has long   
               been my conviction that a masked man with a gun is a target.
               I see no reason to change that view.

There is no such thing as an "accidental" discharge. All unintended discharges are negligent.

A gun should be a tool in the hands of a deadly weapon.
Not a deadly weapon in the hands of a tool.

No idea where though.

"One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that 'violence begets violence.' I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure — and in some cases I have — that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy."

Somewhere in the hills of the Stan

Any tankers here? Heard of Battle Sight Zero? It's the range at which the round strikes exactly where the reticle is
