Our Founding Fathers Debated This Issue!

[Shadowsix]

A John Basil Barnhill quote:

When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.

This is from a series of debates on socialism published in 1914 but has been attributed to Thomas Jefferson but there is no evidence of this.

An excellent quote none the less and with what people think Obama is trying to do, quite fitting.
