Excellent episode of AMC’s “Turn” (Against thy neighbor)
Loyalist British occupied Setauket begins to struggle under the weight of occupation so someone tries to poison Major Hewlett and shoots Judge Woodhall.
The british respond by ordering all firearms to be turned in. Next British soldiers begin dragging Setauket citizens from their homes in the middle of the night.
The episode ends with a scene of the gallows being erected.

If you haven’t seen this show you don’t know what you’re missing. Its a drama but the history is very solid. Its about Washington’s Culper spy ring during the revolution. The season finale was this last Sunday.
What a great show!
Still trying to sort out Capt Simcoe and Robert Rogers loyalties.
TURN is excellent. I got goose bumps when George Washington was finally shown.
The left-wing (socialist) media and educational establishment controls what most people are allowed to know about history, so consequently they know nothing about what happens when government disarms the public. It’s always been the goal of socialists to reduce the population to powerless sheep so that they can do whatever they want free of the traditional concepts of morality.
Great show. Mrs. 40 and I have not missed an episode.
Thanks. I will check it out.
