This is the second best thing I ever said in a college class.

Sociology class in my Junior College days, we enter into a discussion about firearms, assault rifles, etc. Someone says "you don't NEED an assault rifle to hunt deer."

I replied, "I don't have my assault rifle to hunt deer, I have it to hunt oppressive Federal agents if they ever get out of line."

Silence. For a while. A long while. I added, "you know, like the guys who founded this nation."

More silence, for a while. Discussion over.
