There is no credible evidence that George Washington specifically said, "when government takes away citizens' right to bear arms, it becomes citizens' right to take away government's right to govern." This phrase is often attributed to various interpretations of the Second Amendment and the Founding Fathers' views on government and individual rights. However, it does not appear in Washington's writings or speeches. Washington did emphasize the importance of armed citizenry for defense and liberty, but the exact Wording in question is not directly linked to him.
