Be Peaceful, Not Harmless.
I don't know where this saying originated from or what the original intention of the phrase is, but this is my takeaway from these words.
Not Harmless
I'll start with the second half of the phrase first, as I think most people will not disagree with the way I interpret its meaning.
Let us not neglect our training so that we may be able to effectively use our tools should we encounter a situation that necessitates their use.
To be harmless is to be at the mercy of those who are capable of inflicting harm. Do not be harmless.
Be Peaceful
This part is something that I don't hear mentioned nearly as often, but I think is equally as important as training, if not more so.
Let us not neglect our work so that we may cultivate peace where we will never encounter situations that requires our tools.
In my opinion, and only my opinion, the theoretical ideal is where everyone is proficient, competent, and effective in employing their firearms and first aid equipment in the event that those skills are required, but also where everyone is kind to each other and active in their communities so that there few, if any, incidents that would require the use of those skills.

Meets my expectations!
It's a great sticker! Currently sitting in my drawer until I can find a use for it. I'm considering putting one on a replica firearm of mine for a Kawaii build!

Great girl, meaningful quote
Just got this sticker in, first off. She's absolutely adorable and I love her design. Also a very nice touch that the rifle she's holding uses the eXcise handguards that Bexar offers. The quote is a very meaningful one and one that we as gun owners should abide by. We should strive to be peaceful individuals, promoting goodwill among ourselves and the people around us. That being said, we must be aware of the dangers that surround us and be prepared for the worst that could happen. We can be peaceful, but we must certainly not be harmless and can bite back if needed.
