The state of Virginia cries about the battle flag the 1rst Minnesota took during the Battle of Gettysburg from the 28th Virginia on the July 3 day of the battle to this day.
They have asked for the flag back 4 times. Each time we say No!. The 1rst Minnesota took that flag in open battle and the 70% casualties was the blood paid for it. The blood of 4 men directly paid for its capture.
Their state motto hasn't meant much since that battle.
Hah!
Well shit, I was not aware of that.
... that's uh, funny, I guess, in a more modern context, with more temporal distance.
But, Minnesotans are bleeding again lately, due to armed tyrants, so I guess in that sense, its less funny.
