Bloody Justice

The answer the nation seeks, without knowing, to amend the grievous crimes, felt but unspoken, is an answer not political, but violent, because sometimes, the pen must be put away and the red sword of justice wielded for . . .

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”

— Thomas Jefferson

Let the tree’s thirst be quenched entirely. Let it drink deepest the blood of tyrants. Let the blood flow in a cleansing river.
