Little known US Hist Fact
                    Little known American Historical Fact
 

I was completely unaware of this event that took place in Athens , TN in 1946. I did not know an armed revolt on American soil by WWII veterans ever took place during our lifetime. A very sobering video to say the least.
 

Now the second amendment should be a little clearer to every  one.
This movie lasts less than four minutes and is well worth the time.  
 
video.........best watched in full screen :happy1:

FIRST FACTS:

Please do not delete this bit of US History of which many Americans have no knowledge. View it and share it and pray that we will never need such a response to government!
