Gun quotes
Long-time acquaintence Richard Combs has an entry full of quotes relating to firearms rights, some by unexpected people:
Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest. -- Mahatma Gandhi, Gandhi, An Autobiography, page 446
and some from the usual suspects:
Those who beat their swords into plowshares usually end up plowing for those who didn't. -- Ben Franklin
I found the one by Freud to be especially pungent. Enjoy.
