It was during WWII. I forget which Japanese admiral said this when the subject of an invasion of mainland USA, but what he said was basically... "If we invade the US, there will be a gun behind every rock, every blade of grass." Well, it's a part of our culture, it's a part of who we are. I will most certainly fight for what I consider a part of American culture.

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."
This is quoted from the American Declaration of Independence.
It is not the function of the government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the government from falling into error.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice : Robert H. Parker
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.
Thomas Jefferson
Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
Thomas Jefferson
To disarm the people (is) the best and most effectual way to enslave them...
George Mason
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
Edmund Burke 1729-1797
