I kind of guessed that the ABCL motto didn't come from fellow MPLS resident Westerberg. But I kind of like him and the 'Mats too much to *not* sneak that reference in even if it is historically incorrect.

Just a nit pick on cause and effect: as far as I can tell from five minutes searching the web, Paul Westerberg wrote the song "Right to Arm Bears" around 2006, whereas the motto for ABCL has been around since the late 1990s. It's cool that HE might be a ABCL user, as I was always a huge Replacements fan! The exact source of the the ABCL motto remains a mystery to me, but perhaps others more steeped in the lore of the Bear can advise?
