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.
Had some Scouts out on a hike one time and was trailing the group hanging back a little. I came up on the rattlesnake they had stomped to death without even seeing it. Great moments in outdoorsmanship!
Nothing beats the thrill of looking at your hoof about to collide with a monster rattler that would have ushered you into the afterlife after 3 days in the venom ER, to no avail.
People that mess with the wildlife deserve what they get.
