Martyrs for freedom

Haha “martyrs”. Are you a betting man? How much would you like to wager that he eats before accomplishing anything of substance? I’ll give you 10 to 1 odds.

Nah, I'm not a gambler. Something's should still be considered sacred and shouldn't be considered low enough to bet upon. We aren't Romans betting on who's going to get eaten by the lion first. Martyrs are anyone who dies and does things towards a greater cause such as freedom. Those kids who got run over by tanks in China were martyrs for freedom. Freedom is the ultimate goal. You and I enjoy freedoms many folks wish they had. Many folks around the world can get killed or jailed for even talking out of line or talking their minds like you and I are doing now. This is a freedom we have.
