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.
Once in Northern Western Australia I swam in a billabong along with Johnston crocodiles, but I didn't know they were there till I got out. Then my heart went pitty-pat! All limbs still intact, though.
Shoot the gator if you must... or feed the gator marshmallows (they really like them - are addicted to them), but don't taunt it.
