Default Patrick Henry, the fiery pastor, was the one who said:

"The tree of liberty MUST be refreshed occasionally, with the blood of patriots and tyrants".

HOWEVER: I have come to see a day when Sting, of the rock band Police, was also correct, when he sang "I've no faith in constitution, there's no bloody revolution".

The type of men that fought the American revolution are so scarce today that we might as well not be here, excepting as witnesses to speak in the court at the end of time.
