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?

I grew up in country like that. The problem with it is that it's a serious struggle to earn a living when you're in that environment.
