The Battle of Athens - Firearms Stopping Corrupt Gov.

Post by expandspanos »

The Battle of Athens (sometimes called the McMinn County War) was a rebellion led by citizens in Athens and Etowah, Tennessee, United States, against the local government in August 1946. The citizens, including some World War II veterans, were fed up with their officials' political corruption and voter intimidation.

This short movie below is based on actual events: When the government gets overtly corrupt, the people have a right to abolish it: The people in this short film felt the only recourse is to use their 2nd Amendment right and take things into their own hands and fight back

Whether you agree or not with their methods, the Battle of Athens is a oft-forgotten lesson about restoring the rule of law from our past.- Is it any wonder the gov. wants all firearms tracked with RFID now, and won't let Americans have more than 7 rounds in a clip in some states?
