I am proud to say that Patrick Henry's motto is mine - "Give me Liberty or give me Death." I am frank to declare that it is my fixed and changeless purpose to kill any so-called man who attempts to enslave me or mine, if possible, though it be Millard Fillmore himself. To do this, in defense of personal liberty, to my mind, would be an act of the highest virtue, and white Americans must be real hypocrites if they say not to it - amen!

I am ready, willing, and should rejoice to die; and I glory in the fact that so many of my brethren are of the same mind, and feel determined to be sacrificed rather than be enslaved.

According to the reading, what is it a virtue to kill or to die for?

the laws of the United States

threatening to kill the president

defending personal liberty
if your are CORRECT i will give the crown i promise
