Heck, it happened largely because of gun control. If the British hadn't marched on Lexington and Concorde to confiscate their arms, things would have remained peaceful. At least for a bit longer.

Inscribed on several monuments in Lexington, Massachusetts:

"Disperse you Rebels. Damn you, throw down your arms and disperse!"
- British officer, Lexington, 1775

"Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they mean to have a war,let it begin here."
- Captain Parker, colonial militia, Lexington, 1775

"By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Her flag in April's breeze unfurled,
Here the embattled farmer stood,
and fired the shot heard round the world."
- Poem inscribed on the Minuteman statue at Concord Bridge.

Typical right wing, compensating tripe. Not even very good. If you take away all the bullets, gun owners would then just go out and beat kittens to get out that macho crap from their systems. They should all be taxed to poverty and then supported through mandatory and government sponsored mediation and yoga training programs.

Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants

Not really "angry" but maybe a little pompous and sanctimonious.

But... going back to the original post I like numbers 13 and 18.
