“Despite the fact that it proved to be mostly a false alarm, the ‘Powder Alarm’ of Sept 1-2, 1774 showed the colonists that the British were serious – and willing to use gun control efforts to subjugate them. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? In response, thousands of people armed up and started streaming towards Boston to fight off the aggressors in what became a precursor to Lexington and Concord just a few months later. Of course, they don’t really teach this in the government-run propaganda centers/schools.” (09/01/24)
