I was hanging out with my friends a few weekends back, and I said something that I thought was only slightly funny. Something I thought would get only a slight chuckle. Instead my friends burst out laughing and thought it was really really funny. I met their level of laughter, but I didn’t understand why it was that funny. I didn’t get my own joke?

Boston Massacre: A History from Beginning to End (American Revolutionary War)
by Hourly History
Genre: History
FREE for a limited time
Discover the remarkable history of the Boston Massacre…
What makes a shooting a massacre? If a mob of hundreds is facing down eight soldiers and five citizens are killed, is that the Boston Massacre or the Incident on King Street? As was the case with so many of the tumultuous events in America’s colonial history, the answer depended upon whether one regarded oneself as a British subject or a free American.
Loyalists and patriots were already at odds over the idea of separation from Great Britain, and the Boston Massacre, which John Adams regarded as the day the foundation of American independence was laid, catapulted the concept into the forefront of Boston’s fate. Future President Adams, although a patriot by inclination, agreed to serve as the defense attorney for the British soldiers charged in the shooting; he believed that everyone was entitled to a fair trial. As he conjured the events of March 5, 1770, in the courtroom, he masterfully instructed the jury to rely on evidence rather than emotion. Was an order to fire upon the crowd given? Were the soldiers acting in self-defense? Were the men who made up the crowd innocent victims or, as Adams attested, a mob?
The Boston Massacre played an integral part in the incubation of American independence, but it also proved that while a new nation might spring forth in violence, it would not neglect its allegiance to the law.
Discover a plethora of topics such as
• From Allies to Enemies
• Taxation Without Representation
• The Shooting on March 5
• How the Incident on King Street Became the Boston Massacre
• The Origin of Reasonable Doubt
• Aftermath of the Massacre
• And much more!
