My family fought against British tyranny at the Battles of Cowpens and King’s Mountain. If tyranny needs to be resisted today, O’m sure there are enough Americans who will step forward to challenge it.

King George III was a gentle saint compared to what we’re stuck with today.

A third of the population supported the revolution at the time, not much considering it’s outcome.

Two 5th great-grandfathers of mine fought at Yorktown, the battle that ended the War, another was in Boston during the beginning...so where do I sign up?

We were one of Captain Dan Morgan’s 96 VA Rangers, fighting at the Battle of Quebec.

From his heroism at Quebec, winning at Saratoga and Cowpens, along with the fear his elite troops put in the British, Morgan saved this country, IMHO
