I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

Personally I don't think many guns at all are worth that much, except for collectibles, like my grandfather's 1911 with a 500 serial number...

But people with much more money than I like to spend it on more expensive stuff.

Example: Porsche makes a beautiful car. My Nissan runs fine though. If I had the money I'd have a Porsche.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
