peacefuljeffrey 0 #32 February 16, 2004 Man, some of those ACTUAL mottos seem like they were written by IDIOTS who just couldn't think of anything good. What the hell is the "Sic Semper Tyrannus" one all about? Isn't that what Boothe said when he shot Lincoln? And I'd have to ask Virginia: "Umm, WHAT always to tyrants"?! And that touchy-feely shit from some of the others: "Equal rights." Blah blah blah. Is that supposed to somehow sum-up the state? I thought mottos were supposed to kinda go toward doing that. Some of those are a LITtle specific... --Jeffrey "With tha thoughts of a militant mind... Hard line, hard line after hard line!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
