Don't Try To Be Fancy.

I Have Long Had A Tendency To Tie Marksmanship To Morality. The Essence Of Good Marksmanship Is Self-control, And Self-control Is The Essence Of Good Citizenship. It Is Too Easy To Say That A Good Shot Is Automatically A Good Man, But It Would Be Equally Incorrect To Ignore The Connection.

If You Must Use Your Hands, Use Them With All The Strength You Possess... If You Choose To Strike, By All Means Strike Hard.

One Bleeding-heart Type Asked Me In A Recent Interview If I Did Not Agree That 'violence Begets Violence.' I Told Him That It Is My Earnest Endeavor To See That It Does. I Would Like Very Much To Ensure - And In Some Cases I Have - That Any Man Who Offers Violence To His Fellow Citizen Begets A Whole Lot More In Return Than He Can Enjoy.

Weapons Compound Man's Power To Achieve; They Amplify The Capabilities Of Both The Good Man And The Bad, And To Exactly The Same Degree, Having No Will Of Their Own. Thus We Must Regard Them As Servants, Not Masters - And Good Servants To Good Men. Without Them, Man Is Diminished, And His Opportunities To Fulfill His Destiny Are Lessened. An Unarmed Man Can Only Flee From Evil, And Evil Is Not Overcome By Fleeing From It.

Anyone Who Willfully And Maliciously Attacks Another Without Sufficient Cause Jeopardize The Lives Of Others.
