Extreme revolutionary acts, Brevard edition

At 3:00 PM, right in front of the Transylvania County Courthouse [1], a bunch of rabble rousers stood in the middle of the street and right then and there, started ranting about the government.

[The sheer gall of these revolutionaries airing their grievances in public! In front of the county courthouse no less!] [2]… [3]

Stuff about intolerable taxes, a government that doesn't listen to its citizens, usurping the will of the Governors on a whim, giving foreign governments power over us, for waging unjust wars and other things that are outright trea—oh wait a second! Bunny just corrected me—they were reading The Declaration of Independence [4].

Oh.

How revolutionary!
