Ummm, George Washington gave us a whiskey rebellion for what many thought were unjust taxes.
I could challenge the mainstream thinking on this, not hard to do, but this isn't the time nor place. You're demonstrating yet another human character flaw, and that is picking at every little scab on another human. It's especially easy to do when someone has proven themselves better than us and we want to cut their legs off.
Good luck with that. I've heard so many people do the same thing with Dr. King on the shit that the FBI and CIA propagated on him, oftentimes the same dumbasses who hate the FBI and CIA!
