Happy Guy Fawkes Day

Remember, remember the fifth of November
The Gunpowder, Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.

Despite being a raving liberal, I am strongly in support of the right to bear arms because of the powerful sound of truth I hear in these words, from the US Declaration of Independence:

That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Remember, remember. And read V for Vendetta.
