And now, the rest of the story
Thomas Jefferson wrote the following text, but only one line has been made
famous and put on T shirts. The rest is highly relevant and shows the context of the snippet and the timelessness of our genius forefather's foresight into the affairs of the nation they fought and died to create. "God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ... And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the 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. It is its natural manure." End of quote. I wish to see some of this natural manure. And very soon. It's time for a rebellion, or we all will either perish or become slaves to the ruling class. Millions are losing jobs. Millions are losing their homes. Millions are losing health care in a nation where free health care is available only to aliens. In a nation where citizens are treated like lower caste members. Let the nutjobs come to the front and start the rebellion like they are doing, and like I have stated in the past. Some little farmer from Ohio who has lost everything and is dying from cancer and can't be saved is going to change the path of the nation. Mark my words. Steve |
