A friend sent this to me today. I thought it was worth sharing.
The Battle of Athens was an armed rebellion led by WWII veterans and citizens in Athens and Etowah, Tennessee, United States, against the tyrannical local government in August 1946.

Not any more complicated than that.... Just another reminder that The Second protects Liberty.
Watching the video made me stop and consider what this country (the world, really) would be like without the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. It's the last line of defense against tyranny, globally.
