    I think it was the "shooting back" thing, not the "Declaration of Independence" thing that preceded the shooting.

    Actually, the shooting started in 1775, yet not sure who shot first ("the shot heard around the world").

    THEN there was repeated "shooting back" on both sides as politicians sought options.

    The "final straw" -the Declaration of Independace- followed later, when other attempts failed. It was punishable by death, for treason. Hence-> "Either we will hang together, or we shall surely hang seperately."

    (sorry for any misquotes-> of the top of my head)

    I WANT TO SEE THAT PIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!
