He feared the Constitution’s strong centralized government would usurp the rights and authority belonging to the states, tax its citizens excessively, and create a colossal military for the purpose of conquests in the name of “American glory.”
He was dead on.

“Give me liberty, or give me death!”
Goes with:
“I’d rather die on my feet, than live on my knees”.
Either way, there are mechanisms to set things right.

“Peruse the language of the Tea Party or Occupy Wall Street movements, and you will, at some point, encounter “give me liberty or give me death.”
This is fantasy. Give me a single example of where the oinking Marxist pigs of OWS called for even a sliver of freedom or sacrifice for others.

Gentlemen may cry "peace, peace" but there is no peace
Why do we stand here idle?
Is life so dear or peace so sweet
To be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?
Forbid it Almighty God!
I know not what course others may take
But as for me
Give me liberty or give me death!
And this from a public school education.

In honour of Patrick Henry, allow me to update the libertarian response to socialism:
Give me liberty, or I'll give you death!

Not sure I’m ready to rate Dr. Kidd’s work with high regard but will give it a look. Perhaps, given the subject matter I will dispose of that view.
Thx for the post.
