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.
My grandfather, lived for a time, at a home he built, on top the Santa Cruz Mountains, and He had a huge German Shepard named "Bodo". He was a friendly dog, but when you're 5 years old, he seemed a bit brutal. Anyway, we'd go on hikes, and if Opa found a tree branch on the ground worthy of using for kindling, he'd direct Bodo to fetch it home. And he did. He was getting some use out of an animal that he fed every day. He made his dog's food every day with raw materials. In a frying pan. I would have eaten it. Have I digressed?
