I lived in Tonowanda as a 5yr old!

Buffalo is a very hardworking town, lots of Catholics.

Great reading this after-action report, the folks are getting “stirred up” everywhere aren’t they?

[stockpirate]

“Citizens voiced a lot of gripes against Albany and the federal government. Some called for a revolution”

That last sentance says it all. Everyone is saying revolution is the only action that will save the republic. If it is the road to take then it must happen before his national police force is in place.

“If this be treason, than let’s make the most of it.”

“A people unwilling to use extreme violent force to maintain their liberty deserves to tyrants that rule them” SP 2009

[WVNan]

You betcha! I see that Rus was mainly responsible for this one. Way to go Rus! Explain to us the “three men in a room”. I’m lost on that one.
