John Brown said:  "This court acknowledges, as I suppose, the validity of the law of God. I see a book kissed here which I suppose to be the Bible, or at least the New Testament. That teaches me that all things whatsoever I would that men should do to me, I should do even so to them. It teaches me, further, to "remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them." I endeavored to act up to that instruction. I say I am yet too young to understand that God is any respecter of persons. I believe that to have interfered as I have done--as I have always freely admitted I have done--in behalf of His despised poor was not wrong, but right. Now, if it is deemed necessary that I should forfeit my life for the furtherance of the ends of justice, and mingle my blood further with the blood of my children and with the blood of millions in this slave country whose rights are disregarded by wicked, cruel, and unjust enactments--I submit; so let it be done!"

Craig, I'm sure that FOCP leaders have a survey to prove a community demand for that permit!  You bring the woodworkers; the district will supply the rope!

 

Your humble servant,

Glenn

Bad reference to an unlawful insurrection. Are you looking to get hung? I can imagine the list's finest woodworkers stepping forth to craft you a most fine gallows. Fortunately for you, I don't think it will get permitted for Clark Park.
 
Ciao,
