"I would like to see American gun owners adopt 3 goals and 3 new tactics in the next 3 years � or what I call the Three-Cubed plan. The 3 goals I will outline below are both strategic and tactical in nature. They are designed to reverse not only adverse gun control laws, but public perception of gun owners and the gun control debate. I am also recommending 3 new tactics aimed at public relations, press relations, and arming our 2nd Amendment troops." --Guy Smith

"This means that when those people in your neighborhood are killed by a terrorist, you cannot blame the government when the smoke clears. The only person you should blame is yourself, for not having the means to defend yourself. While you legislated and signed petitions to remove your neighbor's right to own a weapon of their choice to defend themselves, and possibly you, with, you signed your own death certificate." --Shonda M. Ponder

That tells you something, that when the issue comes down to basics, they are the ones responsible for their own safety." --Dave Workman, Senior Editor of Gun Week magazine

We are peace-loving individuals who believe that peaceable, responsible American citizens, if given the chance, can and will help thwart such deadly terrorist attacks as we all witnessed with horror on September 11. They can do this by carrying their personal weapons and aircraft-safe frangible ammunition onboard each flight they take. If someone were to try to take hostages or otherwise begin an act of terrorism, those armed individuals can resist.
