A reporter once asked General George S. Patton about his two Pearl handled handguns. Patton was taken aback by the reporter's question, and lectured him by saying:

Here's a pretty nifty firearm related quote I read somewhere:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

I like that gooder.

Seems to me, as a pesky furriner, that there are a lot of people over your side of the ocean who just don't seem to understand those few words.

"I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?"

Gen James Mattis. (AKA Mad Dog Mattis)

"I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fork with me, I'll kill you all."

After the initial invasion of Iraq, Mattis met with Iraqi military officers in 2003 and delivered these cautionary words — his own take on "big stick policy."

(Changed to fork so I don't get banned...again.)
