Sure wish there was a reliable place to escape, just in case. Guess not. Come and Take it!

.......................................................................................Gonzales during the Texas revolution.

(I should edit Wikipedia - here's another great example of "Come and Take it" - "Old Betsy", a 6-pounder, from the War of 1812 that I found during some family history research)

We need to right this ship. Get our Shipp together. (battle story of Ft. Stephenson in the link)

"Ensign Shipp refused to surrender. He replied bravely, “When the fort shall be taken there will be none to massacre. It will not be given up while a man is able to resist.”When Ensign Shipp returned to the fort, Major Croghan met him at the gate and said, “Come in Shipp, and we will blow them all to Hell.”"
