FW: US judge protects gun rights for protection against tyranny
Date: Oct 31, 2005 5:26 PM
OPINION IN BRIEF

“My excellent colleagues have forgotten these bitter lessons of history.
The prospect of tyranny may not grab the headlines the way vivid stories
of gun crime routinely do. But few saw the Third Reich coming until it
was too late. The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed
for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have
failed – where the government refuses to stand for reelection and
silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to
oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable
these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake
a free people get to make only once.” – Federal Appeals Judge Alex
Kozinski
