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.
I've swam with hammerheads a handful of times. They usually stay at the bottom of the ocean looking for food. Bull and tiger sharks make me a lot more nervous. They are aggressive and curious and approach divers all the time. I don't mind hammerheads but will get out of the water as soon as a tiger or bull shark come close. To make things worse bull sharks can live in fresh water for long periods. You are not safe in a river within a few miles of the ocean
Read once the most dangerous of all sharks.
