These are different times my friend. Back then, they were fighting for their freedom and a new way of life. Today, we are born into that freedom and haven't had to fight for anything. I would venture that freedom meant more to them than it does to people today. Could it be that much of America takes their freedoms for granted? Most people can't deal when their AC doesn't work or the cable is shut off.

Last I heard, the NRA was looking for victims to testify in the lawsuit against the city. So maybe justice will be served......
