Battle of Athen, TN in 1946

[Shoot_First]

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

Now the 2nd Amendment is a little clearer as to its true purpose.

Be sure to see the actual photos at the end showing the plaques describing the event.

A lot of things have been discussed in this forum years ago that are more or less buried now, unless you know to look for them.

In your defense, the search function leaves a lot to be desired.

Dave, no problem. I've been busted more than once myself.
