| Message | While the idea of pacifism is one that the Congress of the New Right could embrace we believe the first two articles of this this bill contradict each other. We urge the HRP to contact CNR leadership should they wish to introduce similar legislation in the future. |

| Random quote: "Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man gainst his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American...[T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people." - Tenche Coxe |
