Boston – National Guard units seeking to confiscate a cache of recently banned assault weapons were ambushed by elements of a Para-military extremist faction. Military and law enforcement sources estimate that 72 were killed and more than 200 injured before government forces were compelled to withdraw.

Speaking after the clash, Massachusetts Governor Thomas Gage declared that the extremist faction, which was made up of local citizens, has links to the radical right-wing tax protest movement.

Gage blamed the extremists for recent incidents of vandalism directed against internal revenue offices.

I found it startling to have the Patriots referred to as “Right Wingers” which of course is accurate. It’s just the result of conditioning to think of government forces as being on the right and insurgents on the left. This is the same error that leads to acceptance of the absurd notion that puts the Nazis on the right.

You can thank the Soviets for labeling the NSDAP as “right wing.”

Glad I read it through to the end. If you stop reading after the first couple paragraphs you'll likely find yourself "fixing to misbehave".

Moore is an idiot.

Adam Lanza’s mom was a gun owner. Adam murdered her, took her guns.

Hollywood Fats vs Hubert Ho Hum.

Barack Obama vs Jack Kennedy.

Sigh. Once upon a time, there was a Donk party that could be reasoned with.

But no longer.

Just five years earlier, then-general Thomas Gage led a military unit that fired on an unarmed crowd protesting unreasonable taxes, killing a black man and several others inn Boston.
