• It can't only be men who are the focus of assault prevention. Women should be too. To say that that puts the blame on victims to have to prevent their own assault is crap and has to be treated as crap.

• The church persecuted is the church pure, and the church pure is the church powerful. I believe that Americans by and large have been cursed with blessings, and perhaps before long we'll be blessed with cursings. However, the assaults against the church will be turned around, and everything that the enemy meant for harm will ultimately be used for good.

• I come from a state that has virtually no gun control. And yet, at political peril, I voted for an instant background check, which I want to see strengthened and expanded. I voted to ban certain types of assault weapons which are designed only to kill people.

• The greatest forces in the world are being used against families and traditional family values. These values are being undermined in subtle and in not-so-subtle ways. Because of this assault on family values, it takes all of your best efforts to fortify your family. It takes hard work and planning. It takes sacrifice. 'In the setting of the family...may I suggest that we give more of ourselves.'

  David O. McKay

• If a woman or a gay person has a right, by conservative logic, then the right is not actually a right but instead an assault on rights. Women and gays: So evil that we can turn actual rights into assaults on freedom just by having them.

• President Bush said he didn't want to renew the Assault Weapons Ban because it might 'infringe on hunters' rights'. Who needs an AK-47 machine gun to go hunting? Let me tell you guys something... If it takes you 500 rounds to bring down a deer, I don't want you going to the bathroom in MY house!

• The single combats of the heroes of history or fable amuse our fancy and engage our affections: the skillful evolutions of war may inform the mind, and improve a necessary, though pernicious, science. But in the uniform and odious pictures of a general assault, all is blood, and horror, and confusion . . .

• Castigar a los enemigos y recompensar a los amigos -política al estilo de Chicago- parece ser el principio unificador que ayuda a explicar las exenciones del Obamacare, la acción de la NLRB contra Boeing y el asalto del IRS al impuesto sobre donaciones a los donantes 501(c)(4). Parecen ejemplos de capitalismo de amiguetes, favoritismo en los rescates y gobierno de gánsteres. Una cosa que no parecen es el imperio de la ley.

• Quiero decir seriamente a todos los periódicos, a los republicanos, a los demócratas y a los partidos socialistas que no pueden, mes tras mes, año tras año, hacer el tipo de ataque amargo y falso que han hecho y no esperar que las naturalezas brutales y violentas, o los caracteres brutales y violentos, especialmente cuando la brutalidad va acompañada de una mente no muy fuerte, no pueden esperar que tales naturalezas no se vean afectadas por ello.

• It is true that the vast majority of gun deaths in America are not the consequence of the use of an 'assault weapon.' But that begs the question of whether assault weapons have any real utility either in terms of any sporting or self protection needs.

• Our system doesn't work, and it doesn't work, ultimately, not because of Sarah Palin, or the christian right, or Glenn Beck. It doesn't work because the liberal class failed us. The liberal class failed to find the intellectual and moral fortitude to defend liberal values at a time that they were under egregious assault.

  Chris Hedges

• Our incredible bewilderment (wilderness separation) blinds us from seeing that our many personal and global problems primarily result from our assault of and separation from the natural creation process within and around us. Our estrangement from nature leaves us wanting,and when we want there is never enough. Our insatiable wanting is called greed. It is a major source of our destructive dependencies and violence.

• As I spoke with scientists about the way fat behaves, I couldn't resist drawing an analogy to the realm of narcotics. If sugar is the methamphetamine of processed food ingredients, with its high-speed, blunt assault on our brains, then fat is the opiate, a smooth operator whose effects are less obvious but no less powerful.

• Where psychedelics comes together with that is that it's going to require a transformation of human language and understanding to stop the momentum of the historical process, to halt nuclear proliferation, germ warfare, infantile 19th century politics, all these things. It cannot be accomplished through a frontal assault upon it by political means.

• El esfuerzo por sacar provecho financiero o político de la destrucción de la personalidad sólo puede tener como resultado la calamidad pública. Los ataques groseros y temerarios contra el carácter, ya sea en la tribuna o en el periódico, la revista o el libro, crean un sentimiento público morboso y vicioso, y al mismo tiempo actúan como un profundo disuasivo para los hombres capaces de sensibilidad normal y tienden a impedirles entrar en el servicio público a cualquier precio.

  Theodore Roosevelt
