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 saw something similar on the outskirts of Bakersfield years ago. Someone was moving two large farm hogs in an open trailer when some kind of hog disagreement arose. They were banging into each other and the trailer rails and the trailer was bouncing and twisting all over. Looked like it might tip over. When I got up the nerve to pass I noticed both animals were badly bleeding from multiple locations.
Too much weight in rear of trailer or shifting load. Saw trailer with a half full 330 gallon IBC tote (looked like water) loaded aft of the single axle, sloshing back and forth, was actually skidding the trailer tires as it oscillated and rocked back and forth. 150 gallons water is about 1200 pounds of moving weight being towed with a Jeep. Young man was white knuckle driving and too stupid to slow down or stop. Kind doubted he made it wherever he was heading.
This trailer is awfully happy to be going to work.
ReplyDeleteI see now why the axles crack.
ReplyDeleteYou know. Always put the heavy stuff on last
so it is easier to load and unload. Then show this video.
Fortunately they are not twoing with a Jeep or Tacoma.
Taking his kangaroos on a walk-a-bout?
ReplyDeleteHe must have filled up with that kangaroo gas.
