    Yeah…

    That articles agrees that it was wealthy smuggler like John Hancock who planned it, and that they used “useful idiots” that acted against their own interests…

    Did you forget the part of the comment where you apologized for being wrong?

    Did you misunderstand that article so badly you think it disagrees with me?

    Did you even read it?

    I have so many questions, but I know you have no answers.
