I Prefer Dangerous Freedom Jefferson Quote Tri-Blend T-Shirt
£22.00 - £27.00
In 1787, Thomas Jefferson wrote to James Madison and laid it out plain:
"Malo periculosam, libertatem quam quietam servitutem."
“I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.”
That wasn’t theory. That was a warning. Jefferson had seen what government turns into when people stop paying attention—when comfort becomes more valuable than liberty. He knew the cost of real freedom, and he was willing to pay it.
This shirt is a nod to that mindset. The kind that doesn’t beg permission. The kind that doesn’t apologize. The kind that remembers why this country exists in the first place.
Printed on our tri-blend tee for a vintage fit and feel, it’s soft, durable, and ready for the long haul—just like the ideas behind it. Wash after wash, the message stays strong.
Dangerous freedom isn’t for everyone. But if you get it, you get it.
📜 FULL CONTEXTUAL NERD FUEL:
"Societies exist under three forms sufficiently distinguishable. 1. Without government, as among our Indians. 2. Under governments wherein the will of every one has a just influence, as is the case in England in a slight degree, and in our states in a great one. 3. Under governments of force: as is the case in all other monarchies and in most of the other republics. To have an idea of the curse of existence under these last, they must be seen. It is a government of wolves over sheep. It is a problem, not clear in my mind, that the 1st. condition is not the best. But I believe it to be inconsistent with any great degree of population. The second state has a great deal of good in it. The mass of mankind under that enjoys a precious degree of liberty and happiness. It has it's evils too: the principal of which is the turbulence to which it is subject. But weigh this against the oppressions of monarchy, and it becomes nothing. Malo periculosam, libertatem quam quietam servitutem. Even this evil is productive of good. It prevents the degeneracy of government, and nourishes a general attention to the public affairs. I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical."
