The Texas Revolution
|
Santa Anna had abolished the Mexican constitution of 1824 and made himself Dictator. In 1835 he sends forces to reclaim a cannon in Gonzales. Can't have a cannon out among the people you are trying to control! On October 2, Texan volunteers unfurl this flag and fire the first shot in their war for independence from Mexico. Good old American defiance! At the time, Texas was a Mexican province. That December, Texans take over the nearby Alamo and allow the defeated Mexicans there to leave. But in February 1836 5,000 Mexican troops arrive led by Santa Anna himself against whom 182 Texans and Tejanos, Texans of Mexican descent,
hold out for 10 days before drawing their famous "line in the dust" and
perishing to the man. A handful of women and children are spared. The Gonzales
Banner is an emotional and spontaneous expression of a handful of Texans
standing up for their freedom and democracy. |

A militia formed in 1774 "that in the event of Great Britain attempting to
force unjust laws upon us by strength of arms, our cause we leave to Heaven
and our rifles." These were Pennsylvania country boys with attitude. To
them, the right to bear arms was decidedly not about duck hunting. Lest
anyone miss their point, the rifle and their motto "Liberty or Death" adorned
their flag.
