If someone kills you with your own gun, they better have to beat you to death with it because at that point, it should be empty.

The only thing worse than not having a gun when you need it, is having a gun that's not loaded when you need it.

99explorer, you just took my quote. LOL I love that one, and I think I will give the whole quote to what he said. Plus I got 2 more that are favorites. Great quote incase you deal with someone debating how our forefathers looked at firearms.

"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, occurrences and tendencies prove that to insure peace, security and happiness, the rifle AND pistol are equally indispensable.... The very atmosphere or firearms everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good." - George Washington

"Let your gun, therefore, be the constant companion of your walks." - Thomas Jefferson

This quote isn't about firearms, but hunting and it's still my favorite.

Some would say that those that keep guns for protection are paranoid and/or crazy.

Fire extinguishers are everywhere. Is that just everyone being paranoid and crazy?

Guns are like fire extinguishers. You probably won't need one, but if you do, you'll REALLY need it. And it better be loaded (be it ammo or fire retardant) when that time comes.

If we don't need guns because the police can protect us, then throw out all the fire extinguishers; we don't need them because we have a fire department.
