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.
In high school, I used to hang out with a bunch of tough old log haulers at the local garage where they used to have a couple of toddies before going home. Bob, the proprietor had leaned one of those maypops up against the wall and it sat there for at least two weeks. One of the old guys walked by it one night, and KABOOM!!! off it went. Blew his hat off, never to be found........ until ten years later when my buddy that bought the place was cleaning out the open attic. There it was, jammed up into the far corner at least 70 feet from where the tire was.
Why does that strike me as a BAD IDEA?
ReplyDeleteHaving worked in a tire shop as a kid, that is not a good move.
