sic semper tyrannis

Latin, translation: "Thus always to tyrants", purportedly (but unlikely) uttered by Brutus at the assassination of Julius Caesar. The phrase is meant to signify that tyrants will always be overthrown and removed from power.

The other person who defined this just got it flat out wrong. Didn't think people could be that stupid.

Sic semper tyrannis.

Lucius Brutus: This king raped a woman and got away. This is a clear abuse of power and must be corrected! Sic semper tyrannis!
