STL DPB ON THE ROAD - GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH

 

Liberty, Nebraska, population 67. What I'm doing here is too long a story. For our international friends, you can find an explanation of the title here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Give_me_liberty,_or_give_me_death!

The people who put up the sign probably realized what it meant, right before the ruined buildings...not to mention the meaning of the sign itself, that all that reside in Liberty Cemetery have also met death already.

Patrick Henry's second half of the sentence is less well known: "....but preferably liberty."
