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.
Went on camping rafting trip in Colorado . Went whitewater rafting and a lady asked what happened if she fell out ? The guide looked at her and said swim that this was a self rescue situation no one can help you but your self. Next day at the trail head Ranger asks if we had food and water sufficient for a three day hike? I responded that we did and he said most people don't understand that hiking the Barr Trail in October was a self rescue situation and that help wouldn't be coming anytime soon if we got into trouble. I had never heard this phrase before or since seems like everything we did in Colorado was a self rescue situation. Kinda like the situation I see myself in today in America time to start swimming....
It's all I ever wanted was to be left alone. Thread on those who thread on me.
