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?

Not sure I would carry a semi-automatic rifle that I have to slide into a saddle scabbard, especially a forward-mounted one like he has. There are good reasons to carry lever-action rifles and I think this is one of them!
