Good gun quote
 
Heard this the other day, made me laugh.

"The Colt may have won the West, but the Webley won the rest!"

Some of my favorite actor's quotes about guns

"I have a love interest in every one of my films - a gun."
- Arnold Schwarzenegger

"I have a very strict gun control policy: if there's a gun around, I want to be in control of it."
- Clint Eastwood

Some lines from the Bible I use to counter people who thinks it promotes non violence

"When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are safe."
- Luke 11:21

"Jesus said, 'But now whoever has a purse or a bag, must take it and whoever does not have a sword must sell his cloak and buy one.'"
- Luke 22:36

"Though defensive violence will always be 'a sad necessity' in the eyes of men of principle, it would be still more unfortunate if wrongdoers should dominate just men."
- St. Augustine



Oh and this is another personal favorite

"But if someone has a gun and is trying to kill you ... it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun."
- Dalai Lama

There is no "overkill." There is only "open fire" and "time to reload."

I dunno who said it, but I like it

It's simply known as "Rule 37"

Quite true. Not to mention that you still see Webleys being carried around by locals and rebel armies in ex-British colonies to this day.

Excalibur 11-29-2010 09:02 PM

I would love to get a Webley

Guns don't kill people, the government does.

Max (Jamie Foxx): You killed him?
Vincent (Tom Cruse): No, I shot him. Bullets and the fall killed him.

From Death Proof, the main characters discuss carrying a gun. Copied from IMDB, unedited.

Lee: Did you know Kim carried a gun?
Abernathy: Yes. Now, do I approve? No. Do I know? Yes?
Kim: Look, I don't know what futuristic utopia you live in, but the world I live in, a bitch need a gun.
Abernathy: You can't get around the fact that people who carry guns, tend to get shot more than people who don't.
Kim: And you can't get around the fact that if I go down to the laundry room in my building at midnight enough times, I might get my ass raped.
Lee: Don't do your laundry at midnight.
Kim: Fuck that! I wanna do my laundry whenever the fuck I wanna do my laundry.
Abernathy: There are other things you can carry other than a gun. Pepper spray.
Kim: Uh, motherfucker tryna rape me? I don't wanna give him skin rash! I wanna shut that nigga down!
Abernathy: How about a knife at least?
Kim: Yeah, you know what happens to motherfuckers carry knives? They get shot! Look, if I ever become a famous actress, I wont carry a gun. I'll hire me a do-dirt nigga, and he'll carry the gun. And when shit goes down, I'll sit back and laugh, but until that day, it's Wild West motherfucker!


Profane, crude, and very true.

The Gun Prophet JC has the best:

"Owning a handgun doesn't make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician."

"Remember the first rule of gunfighting... "have a gun." "

"The will to survive is not as important as the will to prevail... the answer to criminal aggression is retaliation. "

"We continue to be exasperated by the view, apparently gaining momentum in certain circles, that armed robbery is okay as long as nobody gets hurt! The proper solution to armed robbery is a dead robber, on the scene. "

"Pick up a rifle and you change instantly from a subject to a citizen."

"The police cannot protect the citizen at this stage of our development, and they cannot even protect themselves in many cases. It is up to the private citizen to protect himself and his family, and this is not only acceptable, but mandatory. "

On the other hand, the first rule of winning a gunfight is "don't get in a gunfight."

My personal favorite is the one at the top of my signature.

I also quite like "Trespassers will be shot. Survivors will be shot again." ;)

Exept it DOES make you armed. How can you have a gun and not be armed? Is he saying that you have to be carrying a gun to be armed? That's correct. But even if your're not carrying a guitar, you're still a musician. The analogy dosn't make sense.

I think it's trying to emphasise that unless you have actual skill with the weapon (and, for that matter, the will to use if need be) you're just a guy with a piece of metal in his hand, same as someone who owns a guitar isn't the same as someone who knows how to use one.

Evil tim seems to word it correctly. Just because you own a gun does not mean you know how to use it or how to hit what your aimin at.

I always got a kick out of this on:

"A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity."
- Sigmund Freud

And the one that sums up why we have a second Amendment

"If guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns"

and one last one for ya:

"All my life I wanted to be a bank robber. Carry a gun and wear a mask. Now that it's happened I guess I'm just about the best bank robber they ever had. And I sure am happy."
John Dillinger

That makes more sense. Who said that anyway?
