If you don't like a particular Alamo history, make up your own. Most everybody else did.

Nobody made up the Texians.

They were residents of the Republic of Texas.

Perhaps I don't know enough or care enough to have dug into the subject beyond the movies I have seen over the years, but I make it a policy not to engage in discussion with people who call others idiots.

What else do you call people so wrapped up in hate, they aren't even capable of acknowledging the errors in the misconceptions they use to demonize a country?

Geezus, Gh is one of the quintessential anti American members, and even he acknowledges the Alamo was defended by Texians, in the Republic of Texas.

Truth hurts I guess. What other descriptor would you use for someone that comments on something that they know nothing about as if they did?

Sometimes calling someone an idiot isn't an insult. Sometimes it's just an observation.

It wasn't even a fort. It was a Catholic Mission.

Houston made them all Colonels huh? Now who is making up history? Any other neat facts on the Battle of the Alamo you'd like to share with us?

Which is pretty much what is going to happen. He will plead guilty to the lesser charges and be fined. Of course these fines are almost impossible to collect.

True that! Now Gerry and I are defending the Alamo side by side!

However, if some pee boss has taken the time to think the plan through, I might be able to overlook the infraction.

Chain him to the foot of that big statue and let the general public piss on him for a day (with no charges)

They used to play Alamo type of music in Sweet Grass when 1500 drunken Canadians would descend on the town of 25 every Sunday (before the bars were open on Sunday in Alberta)

I think this guy pissing on the Alamo is just as reprehensible as someone taking a Toronto Maple Leafs hockey shirt, throwing it on the ground and pissing on it.
