Between Two Rivers

Between the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. Between the Iowa and Cedar. Between the Des Moines and Skunk. I've lived or worked by them all. (Except the Missouri - that one doesn't count.) And fought floods against two of them more than once.

Quotes

Anyone who can't be trusted with a gun can't be trusted without a custodian. - David Codrea

Gun rights are a reflection that the citizen is a responsible member of society, not a subject. Gun rights are a statement that we are responsible to take care of ourselves, and not wait for Nanny to save us or our children. - Mrs. Borepatch, via Borepatch

Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'. - Mike Vanderboegh

A system of licensing and registration is the perfect device to deny gun ownership to the bourgeoisie. -Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

Thou shalt never be a perpetrator. Thou shalt never be a victim. And thou shalt never, but never be a bystander
- Yehuda Bauer

Do you think the laws of God will be suspended in favor of America because you were born in it? - Mark Steyn

After America, there is no place to run. – Kitty Werthmann

It doesn’t matter how smart you are, unless you stop and think. - Thomas Sowell

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that 'violence begets violence.' I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure--and in some cases I have--that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy. - Col. Jeff Cooper
