"Responsibility is a unique concept... You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you... If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion, or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else. Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible."
― Hyman G. Rickover

The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed -- where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.

-- Justice Alex Kozinski, US 9th Circuit Court, 2003

I only caught the tail end of it because of the bad initial link.   What I saw was excellent, though.
In giving us dominion over the animal kingdom, God has signified His will that we subdue the beast within ourselves.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o 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…"

What I've learned:  Forum names are the equivalent of a delta chi nickname... ;D

Very well done.  Looked like a lot of fun.

EXCELLENT is what comes to my mind after listening to the interview.
Actually inspired me to want to set up an Appleseed ASAP.
HOWEVER, all the ranges in my area are closed due to the "Virus" and traveling with my busted up knee makes that a no go.

Stand proud Diana you were great.  ^:)^

This video was a darned big deal.

As of today, it had the reach of almost 6000 viewers.  That exceeds the number of shooters we've taught so far this year.

Thank you, Google.  Very well done.  First class.   :F
