Four boxes

"There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: Soap, Ballot, Jury, and Ammo."

Ed Howdershelt.

I heard that saying on the radio the other day. When I heard it, the first thing that popped into my head was that you used the soap to wash dirty hippies.

It took me a few days to realise they were talking about standing on soap boxes and exercising free speech.

I still prefer my original thought.
