Should this read “Former California Moms”?

I remember when California Citizens voted down Prop 15, a bill to ban all handguns in the state. It was guaranteed by Handgun Control Inc to be a shoo- in.
But that was 1982. A new generation has arrived “which knew not Joseph.” and are willing to give up liberty for safety, something both Cicero and Ben Franklin warned about.

“When men give up their freedom willingly in the name of security, they will soon lose even that degraded security.”—CICERO
Copy this quote! I found it in a March 1988 copy of a Republican booklet that was “The Official Organ of the Republican Party.” It is hard to find today!

“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
― Benjamin Franklin

Needless to say, today’s libs have twisted themselves into pretzels trying to claim such words were never spoken by them.
