Interesting bot of history

From:  Mick:

19 April 1775.  About 70 armed "colonists" faced off with the British Military in Lexington, MA.   The un-ordered "shot heard round the world" was followed by more gunfire.  8 "colonists" died and 10 were wounded.  In coming years, the "colonists" would throw off the yoke of an oppressive English government and become "Americans".  "AMERICANS!"
