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 remember when some teenagers would open the dispensing door ,take an empty cup ,a bottle opener and pop the caps off and get some from the open bottles... lowdown mean.
Circa 1980 we had one like that on our college dorm floor except Coke branded, grandfathered in as the rules had changed not allowing vending machines in the dorm lounges. However it was too old to be updated to new pricing so one night a replacement machine was surreptitiously carried up 10 flights of stairs to take it place. The old one went to a new home in someone's dorm room.
That would look good in a garage!
