"Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be very carefully used, and that definite safety rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of citizens to bear arms is just one more guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible"
Senator Hubert H. Humphrey (D) Minn. "Know Your Lawmakers" Guns (magazine), February, 1960, p. 4.

That was then..... this is now. Once a liberal, socialist demoRAT will ALWAYS be a liberal, socialist demoRAT, grabbing as much power away from the people as possible.
I saw a similar quote from John Kennedy as well. Big deal!
I will guarantee that if JFK or HHH or Harry Truman were still alive today, they would be supporting 0dumb0sh_t & the radical socialist demoRATs right down the party line, including gun control, registration & confiscation. Once a socialist RAT bastard, always a socialist RAT bastard!
I think Ronald Wilson Regan would disagree with you...
