Among the first laws passed by the new government, gun control measures were significant in number.And what laws might that be? Point in fact: Why did the British General Thomas Gage dispatch Major John Pitcairn to Concord on the night of April 18, 1775? To seize powder, shot, and arms. On the morning of April the 19th, 50 to 60 militiamen met them at Lexington. He sure wasn't going there for a picnic or a tea party. Big mistake; he and his men were shot at all the way back to Boston. He started out with about one thousand men, but before he got back to Boston he had lost 273 men. This should tell anyone with the brains of a gnat what our forefathers thought of gun control; they were willing to start a war with the mightiest nation in the world at the time over this and other issues. Additional point in fact: Excluding the Second Amendment, it wasn't until 1927 that the Federal government passed legislation regulating guns. So...WABB! Stop posting your lies. |
