“Few issues have been more hotly debated recently than gun ownership. On one side are those who wish that all guns begone, on the other, millions who would fight to keep them.”
The author of a-human-right.com grew up in the USSR and knows a few things about self-defense and what happens when the government revokes gun rights. Although I disagree with his belief that guns provide more safety than pepper-spray and tasers, his website provides a lot of great information for anyone interested in both self-defense and/or gun-rights.
“I and other pro-self defense people abhor violence. We do not, however, expect to be left alone merely by appealing to the best nature of others. While most people live and let live, the exceptions to that practice have to be deterred from preying on lawful humans. That applies to equally the freelance criminals and government thugs. We only have the freedom of expression and other Constitutionally-enumerated rights as long as we stay vigilant.”
