re: #320 Kragar (Antichrist )

Like telling these guys who tell you they need an assault rifle because “The Minutemen fought tyranny” that the Minutemen were barely effective auxiliaries who never won a battle on their own against real troops and Washington hated them. They don’t want to hear that part.

These days, they seem to think The Patriot was based on a real story and want to believe that a rag-tag band of militia can somehow do better than organized and trained soldiers can. And while militia did play a part in the Battle of Cowpens, which is supposed to be what’s depicted as the big battle in the film, for the most part they were ill-regarded and treated with little respect by both sides.
