And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
When I was working graveyard shift at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, as a Department of Defense civilian police officer, one night an SR-71 "Blackbird" had to make an emergency landing.
The aircraft made it in okay, and our shift supervisor allowed time for each patrol to go to the hangar and see the SR-71 "Blackbird".
When I walked into the hangar and saw that thing from in front of its nose, my immediate impression was it looked just like a spacecraft from the movie, "STAR WARS".
Years later, when living in Idaho, I met and became friends with one of the pilots, who had retired to his farm.
He had video of himself ejecting from the SR-71 "Blackbird" when it caught fire.

That would get a million views on Youtube.
