It is long been a principal of ours that one is no more armed because he has possession of a firearm than he is a musician because he owns a piano. There is no point in having a gun if you are not capable of using it skillfully.

It's a matter of will. If you know that you can keep your head, and that you must keep your head, you probably will keep your head.

Buy ammunition! Remember that a man cannot have too many books, too many wines, or too much ammunition. Our adversaries on the other side are reaching for the excuse of lead poisoning. If they can push that idea through, you may wind up still owning your guns but without anything to shoot in them.

It appears that the Soviets are now going to allow prayer in school. One wonders how soon the United States will catch up.

Not to our surprise, we discover that gun crime in Britain is up 10.9 percent since the disarmament of the private citizen.
