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.
Was wacked hard from inductance by a tree strike when i was a kid in the BoyScouts. Entered my forehead, created a burn mark, came out my knee, must of strained every muscle in my body from the jolt. When they say it lights you up they aint kidding, all i could see was a bright yellow light so intense its burnt into my memory like it happened yesterday.
