The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission.

HOLY CRAP!
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

That's shocking, not that anyone didn't expect this to happen sooner or later. He was my kids favorite, I would imagine he is why my son wants to be a marine biologist and has such a passion for animals.

Well, I suppose there's something to be said for dieing while you're doing something you love.

:rivers: I used to love watching his show :down:  HAven't seen it in a while.  ANd he left such young kids too
:usa: Its better to die on your feet than live on your knees :usa:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "
