On Gun Rights, Never. Back. Down.https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2025/12/16/on-gun-rights-never-back-down-n1230938Quote:
Yet we should never give up our right to keep and bear arms. We shouldn't budge an inch.
Why? Because everything they're peddling is a
lie.
The truth is that when governments call for gun control, it is always presented as one side of an equation of guaranteed safety. Sure, you’re giving up your weapons, but what do you need them for anyway? Just call the police! They’ll protect you!
Except they won’t.
Never give them up.
When the fights brew, remember that these are your rights. Never back down. Never give an inch, because it will never be the last. It's not a compromise. It's a loss, and they'll be back for more.
The world is a dangerous place. It's up to us, as individuals, to make sure we're as safe as possible. Don't let them convince you they can do it for you.
Ukraine is in the war with Russia because Ukraine gave up their nukes that they had when they were part of RussiaWhy Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons — and what that means in an invasion by Russiahttps://www.npr.org/2022/02/21/1082124528/ukraine-russia-putin-invasionQuote:
Three decades ago, the newly independent country of Ukraine was briefly the third-largest nuclear power in the world.
Thousands of nuclear arms had been left on Ukrainian soil by Moscow after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. But in the years that followed, Ukraine made the decision to completely denuclearize.
In exchange, the U.S., the U.K. and Russia would guarantee Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum.
Quote:
Yes, Ukraine voluntarily gave up its nuclear weapons. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Ukraine inherited the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal, which included over 4,000 nuclear warheads, 176 intercontinental ballistic missiles, and 103 strategic bombers.
In 1994, Ukraine signed the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances, agreeing to relinquish its nuclear weapons in exchange for security guarantees from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia.
The process of disarmament was completed by June 2, 1996, when the last nuclear warhead was removed from Ukrainian territory.
Ukraine also joined the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) as a non-nuclear-weapon state.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has since criticized the decision, stating that the Budapest Memorandum has not provided effective security, especially after Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014 and its full-scale invasion in 2022.
Do you want to be like Ukraine or Australia??? 
Be careful, Be ready, Be prepared.
