Gunpowder would prove to be the key materiel in the long slog to America’s victory in the Revolution against tyranny. Other necessities were readily available, but the ability to manufacture gunpowder was essential. Even today globalists intent on a newer world order, diminishing the concept of America first, work tirelessly to undermine Second Amendment rights by limiting, taxing, and restricting ammunition.

Continental Congress writes to Oswald Eve.
On this day in history, November 21, 1775, the Continental Congress writes to Oswald Eve, asking him to help with the building of a new gunpowder mill in Massachusetts. Oswald Eve was the owner of the only gunpowder mill in the colonies at the time. The letter seeks help from Eve for details about how to manufacture gunpowder and how to set up another mill.
The bearer of the letter to Mr. Eve was none other than Paul Revere. Many people know about Paul Revere’s role warning the Massachusetts countryside about the march of the British to Lexington and Concord on April 18, 1775, but they are not aware that Revere was sent on missions to New York and Philadelphia numerous times bearing messages from the patriots in Massachusetts.
Paul Revere was already an accomplished gold and silversmith at the beginning of the American Revolution. The Massachusetts Provincial Congress sent Revere to Philadelphia to seek the Continental Congress’ help in building a new powder mill in Massachusetts to help in their efforts against Great Britain. Importing gunpowder was expensive and foreign sources were unreliable because shipments could be confiscated by the enemy. In addition, saltpetre, one of the chief ingredients of gunpowder, could be produced substantially in Massachusetts.
After arriving in Philadelphia, Revere spoke with several members of the Continental Congress. A letter was written by Robert Morris and John Dickinson, both members of Congress, to Oswald Eve and carried to him by Mr. Revere. Mr. Eve received Mr. Revere, but with some reluctance. He was, naturally, concerned that another powder mill in the colonies would compete with his own mill. Morris and Dickinson assured him in the letter that Massachusetts was far enough away from Philadelphia that it wouldn’t create additional competition for his mill, but Mr. Eve was unsure.
He ended up giving Revere a tour of his mill, but he would not give him the actual manufacturing method. Paul Revere, being an accomplished metallurgist and chemist, was able to gain enough knowledge about the process, however, just from his walk-through of the mill, that he was able to reproduce the process back at home in a new mill in Canton, Massachusetts. The mill produced tons of powder for the Continental Army during the war.
After the war, Revere became a leading manufacturer of iron, brass and copper products. In fact, he opened the first copper mill in the United States in the same facility where he started the gunpowder mill after buying the property back from the state. This copper works still exists today under the name Revere Copper Company.

I don’t blame her one bit, exit. Completely IM’s fault. He’s just trying to get you into trouble with the Mrs., so you are no longer allowed to play with us until after lunch. That way he gets all the bacon. A diabolical plot if ever I saw one. Norsky was just there for the entertainment and poor lysie is completely innocent, wondering how anyone can turn a beautiful breakfast into an x-rated discussion.
This thread is quite tame compared to a daily thread that Laz hosted about 20 years ago. That thread featured a number of young women performing a dance that raised more than a few eyebrows. Today’s thread just has bacon.
oh no, I was looking at that video pretty close, and I thought he was okay. I guess people can sustain pretty bad damage and still be able to move away normally
The world is taken over
“Wow, did not look like that bad a hit with the bottle”
That’s what I thought, but it must be hard to tell.
They’re calling it an assassination attempt. I read earlier on Andy Ngo’s X that the attacker is an Antifa affiliate.

Lovely breakfast! I know, I’m having it a bit late. I do love breakfast foods, just not in the morning.
It’s an awful thing to just have room for one dessert at Thanksgiving. So I’ve been practicing making mini pies and muffin tins. We have a pecan that is pretty good, especially for how easy it was. Now I’m practicing with a sugar cookie crust for an apple pie. My goal was to make it nice and crunchy but then I realized the whole thing would fall apart with the first bite. So back to the drawing board.
“Again no food after 3 in afternoon”
Do you have a hard time sleeping if you eat later than 3:00? That’s great that your surgery is helping your breathe better!
“Trump needs to keep blasting the Left like he always does as his VP and heir apparent also must do.”
I was thinking about Trump’s VP pick this time around, as you were discussing yesterday. I’m not near as knowledgeable as you two. But I was thinking he had Pence forced upon him last time, supposedly to get the establishment vote. Which of course should have been our clue that Pence was untrustworthy. Well some of us got the clue. We just couldn’t voice it here.
So he should have a lot more freedom this time around. His record stands for itself. He has nothing more to prove to us, think of how doubtful we were in 2016. Well some were, and some were cautiously optimistic.
As you said, he can be looking for his heir apparent. Not somebody to get votes from a certain segment.
“how anyone can turn a beautiful breakfast into an x-rated discussion.”
You skip a few hours here, and miss a whole lot! I’m going to have to quit doing whatever it is I’m doing...
“They’re calling it an assassination attempt.”
I hope he gets a hanging judge

BREAKING 🚨 In a 2-1 ruling, a panel of the Virginia-based 4th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down part of Maryland’s laws regulating handguns, overturning a requirement to obtain a handgun license before purchasing a firearm.
Maryland cannot add more regulations for acquiring handguns than for other weapons. The court said the law was unenforceable in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling last year. (The Hill) #2A

I think Pence was also the pick to shore up the Christian right vote.
What a flippin’ joke THAT turned out to be! Some of us knew it from the get-go. The guy made snake-oil salesmen look like church elders.
