Significant quotes of 1994
“Our main agenda is to have all guns banned. We must use whatever means possible. It doesn’t matter if you have to distort facts or even lie. Our task of creating a Socialist America can only succeed when those who would resist us have been totally disarmed.”
Sarah Brady, President of Handgun Control Inc, to Senator Howard Metzenbaum
The National Educator, January 1994
“A cultist is one who has a strong belief in the Bible and the Second Coming of Christ; who frequently attends Bible studies; who has a high level of financial giving to a Christian cause; who home schools their children; who has accumulated survival foods and has a strong belief in the Second Amendment; and who distrusts big government. Any of those may qualify (a person as a cultist), but certainly more than one would cause us to strongly look at this person as a threat and his family as being in a risk situation that qualified for government interference. Waco was one of those situations that qualified under our definition of people being at risk that necessitates government action to save them.”
Janet Reno, US Attorney General
