    LiberalGunNut™ here! It's because of quotes like these:

    Karl Marx — 'Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary'

    Ida B. Wells advised, that “the Winchester rifle deserved a place of honor in every Black home.”

    There are more, can't think of them ATM.
