Freedom Isn't Free
The first three battles of the American War for Independence (our Revolution) were not fought over taxation without representation, separation from an abusive clueless King, or nationalism. The first three battles of our American Revolution were fought to resist gun control.
General Thomas Gage, military governor of Massachusetts sent a force to confiscate weapons and capture patriot leaders.
When the British confronted Captain Parker and his militia in Lexington, they arrived to confiscate powder and ball. They met resistance and the negative consequences of collecting ammunition ( one round at a time )…
Notwithstanding our faults, warts, blemishes, mistakes, and habitual myopia, since it’s founding 230 years ago, the United States of America has become and remains the best country on the planet.
Enjoy the 4th
