And in addition to this fine piece of propaganda.........
Sherry's great great great something uncle was Patrick Henry...HERE ARE HIS
WORDS! He spoke this to the Virginia Delegation, in preparation for war with
England, before a vote on the resolution was taken. The resolution passed
after the speech and Virginia joined in the American Revolution. God had
nothing to with it.....MEN fought for our freedoms. BRAVE men.
Sherry intends to contact this website and weigh IN. These people are doing
nothing but exploiting our ancestors. Don't be scared.
The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the
active, the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to
desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat
but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be
heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable -- and let it come! I
repeat it, sir, let it come!
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, "Peace!
Peace!" -- but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that
sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our
brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that
gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as
to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I
know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or
give me death!
Patrick Henry - March 23, 1775

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's
character, give him power.
