I noticed forty years ago that Newspapers and news media ignore the battle of Lexington and Concord on April 18-20, 1775.
I figured it was because too many bad things have happened on those dates in the last 135 years so they want to just push those days aside and not remember them.

Beginning with forced gun confiscation by the British in 1775. The catalyst that started the Revolution.

All Americans must remember the battles of Lexington and Concord!

Unfortunately, Senator Elizabeth Warren undoubtedly thinks that she is the true heir of Lexington-Concord!

Born in Medford, Massachusetts. I lived the first 11 years of my life in Billerica right next to the Concord River before moving to Arizona. Used to take our boats down to the Old North Bridge in Concord. EVERY APRIL 19, PATRIOT'S DAY, we had no school. We went to the parade every year and they had a big field day down at the Concord Minuteman monument complete with "Paul Revere" riding in the parade. My favorite holiday. I went to the 6th grade at the Asa Pollard school which has since been demolished. What a shame. Pollard was the first Minute Man killed at Bunker Hill while he was sitting on a berm eating lunch. A cannonball was fired from a ship and it decapitated him. His home is a monument in Billerica.

I ordered a 250 anniversary Lexington and Concord t-shirt from Amazon. Supposed to arrive today. I intend to wear it every day this month.

And it was all about gun control and confiscation.

I’m a bit dismayed that the 250th isn’t front and center in the news.
