Arms and freedom

Good note. Armed people is free people.

“Perhaps the issue of the right to arms and the right to establish armed militias most rigidly divides anarchists and leftists.

For anarchists, the ideas like the right to arms is necessary and human being and society have the right to defend themselves are natural. Although among the anarchists there are some pacifist groups, the most famous libertarian movements from Spanish anarchists, to Kronstadt and Makhnovshchina were armed (this does not mean, of course, that anarchists everywhere and always in favor of armed rebellion or the use of firearms as the main way of solving problems).

Leftists (especially USA leftists) want to take away weapon from society to pass security entirely in the hands of big government.”
