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 tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
There were five of us kids. Seatbelts did not yet exist. We did a lot of long road trips. Brothers constantly squabbling in the back seat. It was FINE........... Ah, freedom! Back in the day... Oh and roads were curvy and bumpy and SO EXCITING to drive...
