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.
Don't need a match to light it; won't provide any heat; safer than kerosene but runs out faster; pretty much unrepairable and can't be duplicated at home. Four regular D cells cost as much as this thing on sale. OK if you live in a suburb somewhere, I guess. If you're out in the woods or facing real disaster, you're SOL with this thing unless you've got rechargeable D cells and a working solar charger. "Lifetime" LED but a 3 year warranty. YMMV. Looks cool, though.
These are okay, and I have one, but the original Coleman white gas lantern can't be beat.
