"Come and take it" was a slogan used in the Texas Revolution in 1835. At the minor skirmish known as the Battle of Gonzales, a small group of Texans successfully resisted the Mexican forces who had orders to seize their cannon. As a symbol of defiance, the Texans had fashioned a flag containing the phrase along with a black star and an image of the cannon.182-250 Americans died at the Alamo. 600 Mexicans were killed with an estimated 1,200 wounded out of an attacking force of a little 1,400. I’d say that’s a Texas style ass kickin’.
Of course with the current immigration bill pending, now it would look more like Viva Max starring Peter Ustinov. He retakes the Alamo and the Feds send in the NG. But as to not start an international incident, they have no ammunition.
