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.
Awesome how fast they can descend as well. They just loosen up the claws a bit and slide down like a fireman down the brass pole, shredding and flinging bark all the way. My malamute treed a small black (200-250#) in doug fir and kept him there all night a few years ago. In the morning, I called the pup back and the cub made so much racket dropping from the tree (30 feet in about a second), my malamute took off and treed him again about 50 feet away.
