Jim,

A few Jefferson quotes, for the fearful out there:

We are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead, nor to tolerate any error so long as reason is left free to combat it.

Every citizen should be a soldier. This was the case with the Greeks and Romans, and must be that of every free state.

The ground of liberty is to be gained by inches, and we must be contented to secure what we can get from time to time and eternally press forward for what is yet to get. It takes time to persuade men to do even what is for their own good.

I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.

I hold it, that a little rebellion, now and then, is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.
