I'm shocked that such an event really happened on the US soil, where the US government is actually willingly to bomb its own citizens. I never knew that the government fear of the unions is so strong that such acts is even possible. Wiki Link: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_blair_mountain[/url]
Nice thread content
I read about this in APUSH. Pretty hilarious.
That is a great source! Very reliable, would read again.
It was 1921.

Oh wow I also found out there were some people who owned slaves! Even a president of the United States of America owned a slave! I'm shocked that such an event really happened on the US soil.
Oh, goddammit, I was going to update it but I had to sleep. I update it today.
Hey, guess what, America's history is not perfect.
