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.
Spent many pleasant days in Anza Borego in chairs like that. My buddy had a 3 yard to mile and a half range. A 308 shares some characteristics with a morter when shooting WAAAAY out there. Lots of fluffy dust around the 8'x8' target. You could see the misses through yer scope. Good times, never to return, for me.
Ice tea in the shade catching a breeze in the desert ... peaceful easy feeling.
