In the early morning hours of April 19, 1775, His Majesty's Tenth Regiment of Foot marched to Concord, where word had it the troublesome Colonials were hoarding stores of gunpowder and ammunition.

Ironic that the British Regulars of then have been replaced by the Mass State Police, City/Town Police, D.A.s and other authorities now, and they attempt to do the same thing.

"they attempt to do the same thing."

Oh, all in the name of the public good, etc. Can't have an armed populace, they get too uppity.

Sounds to me like you need to have another Lexington/Concord.
