4 An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is
a subject
5 Gun control is not about guns it's about
control.
6 Free men do not ask permission to bear arm
7You only have the rights you are willing to fight
for. Know guns, Know Peace, Know Safety.
No Guns, No Peace, No Safety.
8Guns have only two enemies Rust and Politicians
9You dont shoot to kill, you shoot to stay alive
10Assault is a behavior, not a device.
64,999,987 firearms owners killed no one yesterday
11When you remove the people's right to bear arms,
you create slaves.
12American Revolution Era Flags
The American Revolution would never have happened
with gun control
13Only a government that is afraid of its citizens
tries to control them.
14The United States Constitution The Second
Amendment is in place in case the politicians
ignore the others. What part of 'shall not be
infringed' do you NOT understand?
15 The Founding Fathers on the Second Amendment
"I ask, Sir, what is the militia?
It is the whole people. To disarm the people is
the best and most effectual way to enslave
them."George Mason - Co-author of the Second
Amendment during Virginia's Convention to Ratify
the Constitution, 1788
Firearms stand next in importance
to the constitution itself. They are the American
people's liberty teeth and keystone under
independence from the hour the
Pilgrims landed to the present day, events,
occurences and tendencies prove that to ensure
peace security and happiness, the rifle and
pistol are equally indispensable the very
atmosphere of firearms anywhere restrains evil
interference they deserve a place of honor with
all that's good."George Washington - First
President of the United States
"To preserve liberty, it is essential that the
whole body of the
people always possess arms and be taught alike,
especially when young, how to use them."Richard
Henry Lee - American Statesman, 1788

19Why Fight?
- During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade
America because they knew most Americans were
ARMED! - With guns, we are 'citizens' without them, we
are 'subjects'. - You won't see this data on the US evening news,
or hear politicians disseminating this
information. - Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives
and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely
affect only the law-abiding citizens - The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no
possible victory in defense. The sword is more
important than the shield, and skill is more
important than either. The final weapon is the
brain. All else is supplemental.
20SWITZERLAND
- SWITZERLAND ISSUES EVERY HOUSEHOLD A GUN!
SWITZERLAND'S GOVERNMENT TRAINS EVERY ADULT THEY
ISSUE EACH A RIFLE. - SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE
OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!! - IT'S A NO BRAINER! DON'T LET OUR GOVERNMENT
WASTE MILLIONS OF OUR TAX DOLLARS IN AN EFFORT TO
MAKE ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS AN EASY TARGET. - Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too
late! The next time someone talks in favor of
gun control, please remind them of this history
lesson.
212nd AMENDMENT
LAST SLIDE
- Just think how powerful our government is
getting! They think these other countries just
didn't do it right. I'm a firm believer of the
2nd Amendment! If you are too, please forward.
Learn from history!!! If you value your freedom,
please spread this anti-gun control message to
all of your friends.
