3. Quote Tuesday 9/25
“They stood with their guns to defend themselves. A group of men, about 12, had weapons in their hands, and stood in the middle of the street yelled and immediately were surrounded by the soldiers. The soldiers kept their guns in front of them, as the mob of men used their weapons or hands to hit the guns of the soldiers. People were continuously coming down the street.”
How would you react if you were one of the soldiers?
Do you think the mob of men had the right to go after the soldiers?
What do you think happened with the soldiers after this story was given?

4. WWYD? Wednesday 9/26
You live in the Boston, Massachusetts area. Your parents are staunch Loyalists and feel that it is important to be loyal to the King of England.
One evening, you hear news of colonialists stocking up on weapons and the British army is on their way to confiscate them. You’re not sure which side you’re on, but you have the ability to take action, what do you do?
Ride out to help the colonialists move the weapons even though it means upsetting your parents.
Stay home and avoid upsetting anyone and getting into any trouble.
Help the colonialists AND fight any British soldiers that try to stop you.
Send word to cities nearby that the British army is on their way.
OTHER
You must explain why and how you would carry this out. You may include personal thoughts and feelings- but please remain realistic!
