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.

Love to paw through that pile and see what can be found
After the TSA had been on the job for a while a large cardboard box mounted on a pallet showed up at out state government surplus property outlet half full of just what you see here. I bought 2 Leatherman micras for $2 each.
Old pocket knives have stories to tell. Or used to anyway. When we were kids, a pocket knife was in your pocket all the time, even in school. Currently, your child would be taken to principal's office and wait for police to arrive.
Sadly true. But pocket knives were banned at a lot of public schools back in the 70's. Only the girls still have carried (Swiss Army types and a few switchblades).
Airport stash?
