G. Gordon Liddy

"Obviously, crime pays, or thered be no crime."

"What I did was restate the law. I was talking about a situation in which the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes smashing into a house, doesnt say who they are, and their guns are out, theyre shooting, and theyre in the wrong place. This has happened time and time again. The ATF has gone in and gotten the wrong guy in the wrong place. The law is that if somebody is shooting at you, using deadly force, the mere fact that they are a law enforcement officer, if they are in the wrong, does not mean you are obliged to allow yourself to be killed so your kinfolk can have a wrongful death action. You are legally entitled to defend yourself and I was speaking of exactly those kind of situations. If youre going to do that, you should know that theyre wearing body armor so you should use a head shot. Now all Im doing is stating the law, but all the nuances in there got left out when the story got repeated."

"If the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms insists upon a firefight, give them a firefight. Just remember, theyre wearing flak jackets and youre better off shooting for the head."

"Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; theyre going to be wearing bulletproof vests. ... Theyve got a big target on there, ATF. Dont shoot at that, because theyve got a vest on underneath that. Head shots, head shots. ... Kill the sons of bitches."

"Is it Liddy? Is that the fellow? He must be a little nuts. I mean he just isn’t well screwed on is he? Isn’t that the problem?"

"A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money."
