He didn't tell them to take up arms and attack, he was alerting them they were being attacked. At night. By hordes of British regulars and German mercenaries who already had shown extreme disrespect for colonists, whether or not the colonists were cooperative or loyal, by seizing property and food and drink, beating and hauling any dissenters off... Can't imagine why they'd be so keen to know the redcoats were on the march.
I agree. I never said he said. Just wondering if after yelling, the British are coming, he had added some part about being comfy, not worried; if it might have dampened the furor with which the patriots defended themselves.
What if Paul Revere had insisted people not take up arms but instead remain comfy af.

Are you suggesting violence?
Did Paul Revere?
Did you?
Nice try CIA man. Just pointing out different strategies in history during revolutions.
Huh. Mr. tough guy (that's you) suggests violence, but turns out to be too much of a pussy to admit it.
Next time, put down the bud light, and own it.
