First of all, where did I say it WASN'T a riot? Secondly, I said this is the perfect situation for the militia to take advantage of. If it's a last
minute type of thing then they could very easily have just grabbed whatever they had at hand, and didn't have guns handy. Didn't you say they
wanted to "fight honorably"? Then they would know that if they used guns then the crowd would be gunned down by the other troops. Not that I agree
with you on that, but hey, I suppose anything is possible.
I never said that the British troops were right to be wearing civilian clothes and doing what they did. I didn't say they were evil either, OR that
the militia is evil. However, if you were in the militia and had something like this drop into your lap you would be stupid to not take advantage of
it, and if you had to put on civilian clothes, then why wouldn't you?
If you're going to quote what I say at least get it right and stop putting words into my mouth. And for the record, I'm not ashamed in the least.
I'm simply doing the right thing and waiting to hear all the details tha come out of this story instead of screaming, "LOOK! See how evil they
are!"
