Mr. Bigdeal Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Pretty much.............although the props and clothing are pretty good. "Law enforcement’ is not something sovereign citizens seize from police officers. It is a societal function that citizens delegate to civil police. In so doing, we do not abdicate our own sovereignty, nor our duties as citizens. Ultimate responsibility is still ours. When those we hire as our “Protectors” are either unwilling or unable to perform that function at the critical moment, there is no law, nor standard, that says we cannot perform it for ourselves"........

Joe Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Good entertainment. Historical accuracy leaves something to be desired... The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zybathegeek Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Good entertainment. Historical accuracy leaves something to be desired... Good review, applies to Selma as well.

gadwall8 Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Good entertainment. Historical accuracy leaves something to be desired... The history lady in my news feed said she turned it off after 5 minutes. I've watched it some, it's definitely pumping up Sam Adams to sell beer "I came into this world naked, screaming at the top of my lungs, and covered in someone else's blood. I got no problem leaving it that way."Who can hope to be safe? Who sufficiently cautious? Guard himself as he may, every moment's an ambush.

longcaster Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 What is the metal thingy the British officers are wearing around their necks? It looks (on Gage) to be gold and the others silver. How can Sam Adams be called a craft brew after they have grown so large? If being stupid got us into this mess, how come being stupid can't get us out?I don't want to behave improperly, so I just won't behave at all.

Jonesy Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 I liked it enough to give it another episode or two. of course accuracy is off a little but not too egregious (excluding dialogue) yet. it is TV and not a documentary.

Moonpool Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 I have been watching it it is very good. in fact if you read the post " Justice Sotomayor: Stop Bending the Constitution to Favor Cops " you will find in the article that what that Justice Sotomayor is talking about the same freedoms that our founding fathers were fighting about!

Wigeon Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 I watched the first hour Sunday night, wifey watched the DVR'd second hour during yesterday's snow day. She proclaimed that, like a few of you have here, that is sucks... Therefore, since she runs the show around here, I won't be seeing any more of it....

Jonesy Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 aren't there only three episodes in total? no clue. I guess i'll have to look it up now. Sons of liberty and the related first intelligence agencies, first navy and first armed forces could make good TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
