You guys are forgetting a critical fact. This battle gave the rallying cry to the anti-anti-gun folks.

When Xerxes told the Spartans to lay down their weapons, he was told "Molon Labe" (come and take them).

With the Dems in power in Congress, this is something to keep in mind.

I prefer the Texas version:

COME AND TAKE IT

Battle of Gonzales, October 2, 1835
