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.
I like the "What the...?" expression on the kid's face.
I solved the cell phone thing with my kids by telling them to buy their own phones if they really wanted them. I wasn't paying, but no one was stopping them from getting one if they could afford it. That technique also encouraged them to work for what they wanted.
Good job, dad, but if his kid hadn't been on his cell phone, maybe he would have ducked out of the way.
