“Live Free or Die” sounds good, but….

Oddly enough it was the motto of the Jacobins…!

And the Jacobins were pretty much Marxists who believed in an all-powerful central government.

I guess it’s like when left-wing newspapers who believe it is their job to censor dissent say things like “Liberty dies in darkness”

The Major News organizations are places of darkness. So, Liberty does die there.
I do like how President Trump has that purple aura, and Melania has that awesone yellow aura. Tim Walz has a scary black aura. As a tetrachromat, I do see things that others don't.

Interesting.

Explain more about those auras; I've only heard bits and pieces about that stuff, but find it very interesting.

Imagine if the apostle Paul had said live free or die, instead of, I die daily.

In my own life, there has been times when freedom became my god. I have to be careful with it still. I used to say that I would never get on an airplane, or go to a place I couldn't carry my gun. But by laying that aside, I was able to go to California and witness to a friend.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Everyone has an aura. It is just a function of cellular elictricity leaking into the atmosphere. What is weird is that personality affects the color. I find that good people tend from yellow to ultraviolet. Bad people tend more toward infrared. It took me over 45 years to understand that most people do not see this. My genetic abnormalities make it hard to find Doctors who can work with me. Lacking the genes to code for 2C19 and 3A4 of the Cytochrome P450 system causes some to just have brain lock when I tell them. Having 4 visible sets of cones inside my eyes has always caused Opthalmologists and Optometrists to say things like "that is strange".
I see scorpions outside in the dark. They glow a sickly green.
I tried to use 23 and me a few years ago. They refused my sample after testing it. They said they could not identify precisely what it came from due to the 22 chromosomes.
