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.
Reminds me of the ones that I used to buy at the corner store for forty or fifty cents a box when I was a kid back in the early '60s. I'd walk right into the store carrying the old Steven's Buckhorn rifle on the way to go plinking and nobody would blink an eye. How times have changed..........
I love me some Rimfire.
ReplyDeleteIt's a strange love, but I suffer from it as well. Seeing a traditional box of .22 ammo like that really does make me feel good. Remarkable.
