Vigilance

A Pro-Military sticker with Jefferson's quote:

"The price of liberty is eternal vigilance"

Two things wrong with their use. First, Jefferson didn't say it. :)

But second, the thing that you must remain vigilant against is the government. Which is the very thing they use the quote to support. Governments are the most dangerous opponents of Liberty. Not brown people on the other side of the world.
