Dogsoldiers Quotes

“A friend of mine who is a political activist said something interesting the other day, and that was for most people on the left political violence is a knob, and they can turn the heat up and down, with things like protests, and riots, all the way up to destruction of property, and sometimes murder… But for the vast majority of folks on the right, it’s an off and on switch. And the settings are Vote or Shoot Fucking Everybody. And believe me, you really don’t want that switch to get flipped, because Civil War 2.0 would make Bosnia look like a trip to Disneyworld.”

“only drafting men. The problem with that? The law was, at the time, you could be whatever gender you wanted, and overnight a huge chunk of the draft-age males in the country (some said it was as high as twenty-five or even fifty percent) declared they were now “female”. Almost as quickly the government decreed that your gender was determined by the reproductive organs you had at birth—ovaries meant you were female, and testes meant you were male, and they ignored the outrage and screams of “genderqueer hate”, “transphobia”, “intersex denial”, and everything else.”

“At least he didn’t have to deal with elective gender pronouns anymore. Dietz snorted at the memory of that debacle.”

“The Bill of Rights,” he growled, “the entire Bill of Rights, was a complete ‘Fuck You’ to the idea of trust in government. An insurance policy. The people who wrote it had just fought off a tyrannical government—their own. Not just the Second Amendment, every amendment in there from the First to the Tenth enumerated the inherent rights of individuals, above those of government. The Bill of Rights doesn’t grant us rights or privileges, it lists the ones we have as human beings that the government has no right to take away. It flat out states the government has no authority to infringe our rights, and the Second Amendment is just there to guarantee the other nine. It’s not there so you can go duck hunting, or even so you can defend yourself against criminals—that was assumed. It’s there so that people like us don’t get ground under the bootheel of tyrants, or at least have a fighting chance, because there always have been tyrants. Always will be. Most of the Constitution is written in very plain language, but ‘shall not be infringed’ is about as plain as it gets, and only people with evil intentions could even attempt to start arguing it doesn’t mean what it says. Free men own guns, slaves don’t, it’s as simple as that. You’re fighting for a government that is trying to argue we should have no rights except for what they grant us. Besides plain unConstitutional that’s evil, pure and simple. And, if you actually took a look at the conditions that caused the colonists in America to revolt against the British back in the 1700s, those laws and regulations are nothing compared to the outrages citizens were having to endure prior to this war.”

“They didn’t seem to care whatsoever that they’d just killed a man who’d honestly done nothing wrong other than not turn in guns the government decided were now bad and who ran up when he heard his front door getting kicked in. In fact, the way they were talking, they were looking forward to killing more guys like him. I’ve known a number of cops like them, that if it’s legal that meant, to them, it was right, and they never gave any thought to the idea that just ‘cause they can doesn’t mean they should. The type of guys who never consider the fact that some laws are not just stupid but wrong, and these feds were that times ten. These guys were just ecstatic about their new freedom and power to do damn near whatever they wanted.”

“Most people jes’ want to be left alone to live their normal, peaceful, boring lives.”

“they’ll still believe the same things that caused the war in the first place—socialism, communism, vegan grocery bags, twenty-seven genders, guns are evil, America has never been great, never hit back, government should be in charge of everything, all of it. That’s not peace or victory, that’s just a temporary ceasefire. Their beliefs aren’t just evil, they’re a poison, a cancer, a rot. Winning doesn’t just mean the war stops, we want to have a healthy country after all this.”

“suffering from decades of high taxes and high crime, people being paid to do nothing, which kills your soul slowly, and then taught in public school that the country sucked, that it had never been great, all our heroes and founding fathers were racists or whatever,”

“Calling this carbine a pistol makes as much sense as forcing law-abiding citizens like your father turn in their guns for the sake of ‘public safety’, but it’s not about making sense, or reducing crime, it’s about taking control.”
