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.
Here is a pro tip: If you even cut open any type of hot peppers, besides the mandatory eye protection (you do NOT want to get any juice from a hot pepper squirted into your eye!) you should also wear some liquid-proof gloves. I once made the mistake of cutting open about a dozen ripe red cayenne peppers to harvest the seeds for a future crop. My mistake was in handling them with my bare hands. The juice from those peppers soaked into my fingers, and my fingers were ON FIRE for a couple of days! NOTHING lessened the pain in my fingers. I tried washing and soaking my hands in all sorts of stuff, like rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, milk, baking soda, etc, but only time made the heat go away.
I also once got some liquid from a relatively mild green bell pepper in my eye, and that was more intense than I would have wanted. If you ever got juice from a jalapeño or a ghost pepper in your eye(s), you would no doubt have to go to urgent care.
could be my anatomy after indulging.
