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?

How long would it take for Ms. Grundy to call the Child Protective Services on parents who let their boys box like that, I wonder.
These days you can't even let boys that age walk to the park by themselves without some nosy parker calling the cops, so I'm glad I was able to be a boy back when that was still OK!
