Thanks for the transcript steve w. This is the state where William Travis, James Bowie and Davy Crockett made their last stand at the Alamo. This is the state where a small band of patriots at the battle of guns was armed, with a single cannon stared down a far and powerful army and declared come and take it come and take it come on.

Still happened at Gonzalez.

Sounds to me like he meant to say ‘Gonzales’ and slurred it and it came out ‘battle of guns.’
