It's a day when people who shot politicians are honoured, and their stories told as examples of heroism.

Lot's of Red Coats and Hessians were shot, plus some Loyalists who donned Brit uniforms instead of running to Canada, but I don't recall the Patriots of 1776 shooting British Pols or any other civilians.
