Pelham: "Is that like when the Rebels seized the Crown’s property and shot its Redcoats back in 1775?"

By 1775 Brits had clearly begun war against their American colonies, in one well-known incident of which they sent Redcoats to Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts, to seize American militia arms.
In defending their rights to keep and bear arms, American militia-men first battled Redcoats.

The 1861 equivalent was the Confederate's assault on American Army troops at Fort Sumter.

Both battles created states of war against the United Colonies / States.
