The Liberties Of None Are Safe Unless

The Second Amendment Reveals A Profound Principle Of American Government - The Principle Of Civilian Ascendency Over The Military.

The Constitution And The Bill Of Rights We Designed To Get The Government Off The Backs Of The People -- All The People. Those Great Documents Guarantee To Us All The Rights To Personal And Spiritual Self-fulfillment. But That Guarantee Is Not Self-executing. As Nightfall Does Not Come All At Once, Neither Does Oppression. In Both Instances, There Is A Twilight When Everything Remains Seemingly Unchanged. And It Is In Such A Twilight That We All Must Be Most Aware Of The Change In The Air -- However Slight -- Lest We Become Unwitting Victims Of The Darkness.

Restriction Of Free Thought And Free Speech Is The Most Dangerous Of All Subversions. It Is The One Un-american Act That Could Most Easily Defeat Us.

The Liberties Of None Are Safe Unless The Liberties Of All Are Protected.

A People Who Extend Civil Liberties Only To Preferred Groups Start Down The Path Either To Dictatorship Of The Right Or The Left.
