The Lexington Day Massacre is what modern citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia call the day that everything changed. It was not the day they won. They lost, in fact, depending on how you measure victories and losses. It was the day Lexington, Virginia began to fight back with the only currency that tyrants understand. The Fed that killed two elderly protesters sparked a gunfight between the Feds and Rooftop Virginians that claimed the lives of fifteen Federal and Commonwealth officers, twenty-nine citizens of Lexington, and the police chief and half his department. The Feds eventually evacuated the city, though only after they set fire to the majority of the downtown buildings, destroyed the local police and fire stations, and arrested the mayor and his family for taking part in the protest. It was the wrong move for them to make.
