I'd like to meet:
RON PAUL fo' life!
sni]>etz: Patrick Henry: Pro-Gun, Pro-Freedom bad ass, who said "GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH." And meant it.
Also:
"Guard with JEALOUS attention the PUBLIC LIBERTY. Suspect every one who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined."
ONE OF THE BEST QUOTES EVER, from one of the most intelligent and patriotic men in the history of this world,IMO.Patrick Henry knew that the POWER to resist oppression rests upon the RIGHT to possess arms. All I really want is for this country to return to the principles it was founded upon, to escape the extortion by political correctness and the CONSTANT AND CONSISTENT attacks on our personal freedom.
For those who wish, a little history lesson;
Henry, Patrick (1736-1799), was a distinguished statesman, lawyer, and orator at the time of the Revolutionary War in America. He is remembered most for the words, "Give me liberty or give me death," which, according to tradition, he spoke in 1775 before the Virginia Provincial Convention. Henry was urging that the Virginia MILITIA BE ARMED for defense of the colony against ENGLAND. A man who heard many of Henry's speeches once said of the orator: "He is by far the most powerful speaker I ever heard. Every word he says not only engages but commands the attention." Henry was also an excellent politician and administrator. Henry served as the governor of Virginia during the Revolutionary War.
Thomas Jefferson:
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
What did Jefferson mean when he said this?????????? and THINK FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!
