I'm not one for romanticizing the American Revolution or turning its participants into lionized heroes, but there's really something icky about #Lamont making fun of #NathanHale *because* he was hung by the British

Like, from what little I recall he want the greatest guy, but mocking him for his execution seems like a failure of empathy on the part of #Connecticut's most powerful politician

#History is cool. #nathanhale #RevolutionaryWar

With encouragement from his older brother’s American history class and Nathan Hale’s Hazardous Tales, the 9yo is now obsessed with the Donner Party story. If you are new around here, you might want to buckle up, this child of mine is a loose cannon. #ADHD #AmericanHistory #NathanHale #ReadingIsGoodForYou #cannibalism
