Seaver, that's pretty historically innacturate. The Boston Massacre was of "common" people, not of rich merchants/drunks. Tensions were running pretty high at the time, and while I think everyone would agree that you've found the match that set off the whole explosion that was the Revolution, you've oversimplified the facts you've chosen and ignored others that are salient to the arguement.
