Add the earlier attempts BY the British to take over the local armories at Williamsburg (just across the street - literally! - from the statehouse where they has been meeting earlier!, and up north outside Boston (Concord was the second British Amory attack to take weapons away from local control up north)!

I went to Williamsburg and they discussed how the Colonists were required to carry arms and even practice formations.

I was then conscripted into a mock formation and march, with wooden rods as props meant to replicate the carrying of arms.

One of the best days evuh!
