Trijicon puts Bible passages on it's sites

Those who stand for nothing, fall for anything.

The next one that posts a bible passage is going to get banned.

This is not a "Christians R Us" website. Save the bible quoting for those websites.

This thread is closed.

RE:

The attributions to Alexander Hamilton for this quote are all over the Web, but there is no hard evidence anywhere linking it to him. On the other hand the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations says that the British journalist Alex Hamilton said 'Those who stand for nothing fall for anything', in a 1978 radio broadcast which was subsequently transcribed in the journal The Listener.

In a 1997 court case which entirely hinged on the authorship of the line 'You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything', the defence showed that similar lines had been used by {US Senate Chaplain} Peter Marshall in 1947, by Ginger Rogers in 1978, by the British Alex Hamilton in the same year, and by unnamed writers to newspapers in 1989 and 1990; also that it had been ascribed to both Malcolm X and Martin Luther King. Despite the amount of research that must have gone into amassing those citations, no mention was made of Alexander Hamilton.
