I like it except for what looks like a tomahawk. I don’t see a connection.

“I like it except for what looks like a tomahawk. I dont see a connection.”
The participants at the original Boston Tea Party were dressed as:
1. Pilgrims?
2. Agent Smith?
3. Wild Indians?
I think the tomahawk is awesome. It was a common side arm during the revolution, harks back to the original tea party, and symbolizes heartfelt defiance. Much better than the swishy ribbons or surrealistic sphincters favored by some candidates.

The tomahawk was the tool that the patriots used to break open the Kings tea so that they could throw it overboard.
The British feared the tomahawk because it was a symbol of rebellion among the colonists
