There were many reasons for the declaration of Independence, the document that thumbed noses at the British empire. It's been several decades since school, but I remember most of the reasons having nothing to do with the spark that started the war. The British was escalating their iron handed authority, but all the colonists did was grumble and take it. Then the spark was ignited by attempting to disarm 'the people'.
Today most states are becoming more arms friendly, while the federal government is tending the other way. The administration has been ignoring laws, attempting to control our lives in total, and trampling on the rights of the people. And all we do is grumble. I wonder when and if there will be another spark.
