On this here cigar forum. 1 More off my bucket list. I feel so fulfilled....
A history question about the 2nd Amendment and its real meaning. The 1st correct answer will receive 5 smokes from my 5 Vegas stash, cause them is what I like, and them is what I smoke (no pointy ones).
There was an incident, in the "south", when the citizens of a small town exercised their 2nd Amendment rights and took back their local government, from an absolutely corrupt bunch of politicians and local "law" enforcement.
The whole town was involved and they armed themselves with their legally owned firearms, basically a bunch of farmers with 22s, shot guns and hunting rifles, and they stormed the local government building and took it away from a bunch of very corrupt and arrogant crooks.
They did it with the help of a returning GI (WWII), who I think was in uniform for the attack. It made national headlines and would have made a great movie. There was a short made and it included a lot of well known, at the time, actors. Gee I wonder if hollywood would make a movie about it today...
It was suggested I ask a trivia question for this little contest....but why waste an opportunity. Hope you don't mind my little history exercise.I mean if I have to bust a perfect 1000 it might as well be about something I am a strong believer in.
oopsies....I guess I should ask a question.....NAME THE TOWN and DATE.

Ya know sumpin.....You would have to be both to know the answer off the top of your head. Congratulations.....and well done.
Wish I still had the short movie and I could post it...but alas like so much THE wind took it and did not leave a receipt.
I may have to penalize you for being so fast.
I have a real hard time trying to convince my grand kids that the internet is not just for games and that the wealth of knowledge that is out there is far more important then learning how to steal a car or 1000 ways to kill someone.
I am uh....umm...looking at your avatar and BOB tells me it is really you. So...uh...pretty faces..?
