Please join me in welcoming Tom D (aka Hardcase) to the Michigan Cadre.  Tom has been supporting Appleseed events in SE Michigan for some time now, with all of the qualities we admire in a volunteer.

But Tom was chasing that elusive Rifleman patch for several events - an experience that I can relate to!  In fact, his very first event was 13 years ago. A Rifleman Persists, and Tom got the job done in Fenton last weekend - congratulations, Rifleman!

We wasted no time getting him under the Orange Hat that had been set aside for him.  Welcome to the cadre, Hardcase!

During the seventy years which elapsed between the overthrow of the Stuart dynasty and the victory of Wolfe on the Heights of Abraham, the relations between the American colonies and the British government were, on the whole, peaceful; and the history of the colonies, except for the great and romantic struggle with New France, would have been almost destitute of striking incidents. In view of the perpetual menace from France, it was clearly unwise for the British government to irritate the colonies, or do anything to weaken their loyalty; and they were accordingly left very much to themselves. Still, they were not likely to be treated with any great liberality,â€"for such was not then, as it is hardly even yet, the way of governments...

"There is certainly no small danger, that indifference may lead to disgust, and disgust to contempt; and thus gradually undermine all the protection intended by this clause of our national bill of rights." - Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, 1833 Treatise regarding the 2nd Amendment
