Sic Sempter Tyrannis, the phrase is attributed to Brutus at the assassination of Julius Caesar.

In his mug shot following the Oklahoma City bombing, Timothy McVeigh wore a shirt with a picture of Lincoln on it and "Sic Semper Tyrannis" written below.

In "The Pilot", an episode of the American sitcom Seinfeld, the character "Crazy" Joe Davola shouts the phrase before attacking the main character, Jerry Seinfeld. The translation is later given, incorrectly, as "Death to tyrants".

The next time I attack somebody, I am going to yell this.
