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 tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
At my current age, I probably wouldn't be able to make use of it, and can only say, "I would have gotten into so much trouble if I'd had one of these when I was a kid."

1) Forget the rope. You want to attach a carabiner to a caving ladder. Then it goes from toy to tool. 2) Ten demerits to the maker for not offering it in the correct "Ninja Black" color. 3) If you insist on a rope, get at least 50m, not that pathetic 30' or so. So you can use it to clear tripwire-activated mines from a position of cover outside the blast radius.
