Don't call the Alamo's defenders 'heroic,' Texas school curriculum panel urges

260 against 1800 I would classify
as HEROIC.
They will be tearing down the
statues of the defenders next.

And several other Mexican states had revolted against Santa Ana’s dictatorship, not just Texas.

[Jack Hammer]

A hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die

By a line that he drew with his sword as the battle drew nigh

A man that crossed over the line was for glory
And he that was left better fly

And over the line crossed 179

Hey Up Santa Anna, they’re killing your soldiers below

So the rest of Texas will know

And remember the Alamo

Jim Bowie lay dying, his blood and his powder were dry

But his knife at the ready to take him a few in reply

Young Davy Crockett lay laughing and dying

The blood and the sweat in his eyes

For Texas and freedom no man was more willing to die

Hey Up Santa Anna, they’re killing your soldiers below

So the rest of Texas will know

And remember the Alamo

A courier came to a battle once bloody and loud

And found only skin and bones where he once left a crowd

Fear not little darling of dying

If this world be sovereign and free

For we’ll fight to the last for as long as liberty be

Hey Up Santa Anna, they’re killing your soldiers below

So the rest of Texas will know

And remember the Alamo

Just surround this “panel” with an angry mob to throw their asses into the street and see how “heroic” this “panel” is.

It was 13 days they held off the Mexicans...

After visiting San Antonio I'd say the Mexican won. The place is overrun with wetbacks.
